Items in Compare Configuration dialog box or File Configuration dialog box

Items in the dialog box include:
  • Files
    Specify files and file types to compare.
    • If a custom compare engine is selected as the compare type, enter the file name or its full path if it's located in a subfolder.
    • If
      Checksum
       or WinMerge compare application is selected as the compare type:
      • Use wildcard to enter file types (like
        *.txt
         for all files ending in .txt), all files (
        *.*
        ), or a specific file in the root folder (like
        abc.txt
        ).
      • Specify subfolder with wildcard to enter file types (like
        subfolder\*.txt
         for all files ending in .txt in the subfolder), all files in the subfolder (like
        subfolder\*.*
        ), or a specific file in the subfolder (like
        subfolder\abc.txt
        ).
        When configuring for a Custom Device, the
        Checksum
        compare type doesn't support the specification of subfolders. Use wildcard to enter file types (like
        *.txt
         for all files ending in .txt) or all files (
        *.*
        ).
