running v3.3.13.19891
i'm running a file and folder compare (using size, time/datestamp and CRC checksum) to flag differences.
one drive is in a server, the comparison drive is SATA mounted in a USB shell.
there's about 1.5 TB of data. folder and file structure is the same, i'm looking for files which have changed.
once the comparison starts, i hit the Expand All structure so i can see the folder and files, mostly because it's nice to see the file lists move as they process. in this case, however, about 20% into the run, everything seems to stop. the "Stop Loading" button is flashing, the files stop moving, there's no new messages in the window at the bottom, but no files are being processed (the current file at the top of the list is only 2MB so it's not like it's a huge file that's taking time.
i go out to my computer and access both drives (navigate through folders and open files to make sure the drive hasn't frozen).
why is BC just sitting there doing nothing? how can i stop and restart it without having to start at the beginning?
i've never seen BC behave like this.
Yes Windows patches are up to date
Yes I have uninstalled BC and reinstalled BC to see if that fixed it.
Yes I have run error checking scan on the hard drives
any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
