Duplicate entry names for files in external HDD

(1/1)

jackuars:
So this issue is occurring time and again after connecting my external HDD to my laptop. I'm literally seeing multiple entries for the same file when i switch to a folder. This happens for video files in external HDD and have attached a screenshot here.

This happens sometimes while USB-Drives use. The only solution is the Refresh-Command (View> Refresh).

jackuars:
Thanks. Hope something can be done to rectify this in the future.

Mathias (Author):
This can happens sometimes. in very rare situations if the filesystem is triggered to be rescanned when it just have finished a scan and is updating the internal cache.
So it gets updated twice instead of once.

Doing a refresh by pressing F2/F5 should fix it.

Since it is very very hard for me to reproduce it,it is not easy to just fix. But the issue is under investigation.
