Impossible to add UNC paths to the list of folders to search #131

Open catharsis71 opened 2 years ago

catharsis71 commented 2 years ago

I need to search for duplicates on my WSL filesystem, accessible via UNC path \wsl$\Ubuntu\home\username\

AntiDupl appears to have at least limited UNC support, because I can use the "Add Files" button and add individual files from the UNC folder, however, using "Add Folder", it's impossible to add the folder. There's nowhere to enter the UNC path, and no way to find it through the tree.

Unfortunately mapping the UNC path to a drive letter is not an option in my scenario.

Utilizing the "Add Files" button as a workaround is not viable as there are thousands of files in the folder and trying to add them all causes the folder to hang.

Please consider adding full support for UNC paths.
