Feature Description Let's say you have two directories:

If you run find duplicates on this setup, czkawka will try to find duplicates but eventually might return 0 results if '/run/' was in 'ignored folders' (which is the default).

Therefore, it might be useful to check if there is any path at all that is not a reference path, and if all the parameters are reference, inform the user before running the scanning.
