Hi,
Currently on 4.1.3, build 20814, running Win10. If I try to generate a folder compare report, whether through scripting or through the GUI, I get "The parameter is incorrect" when comparing folders with many files and subfolders. If I filter out enough files so the file and folder count is reduced sufficiently, the problem goes away.
For example, I have a test case where I'm comparing a folder of 60,000+ files to an empty folder. The populated folder has files pretty evenly distributed through a folder tree about 7-10 levels deep. Trying to generate a report causes the error. If I drop the file count below roughly 45,000, then no error appears. For this particular test, 45,000, give or take a hundred, seems to be the magic threshold. 46,000 always fails, 44,000 always works.
The problem is consistent no matter if I try summary, xml, rules-based, or binary comparison.
