Unfortunately, WinMerge does not support comparisons that ignore folder structure. It compares files based on both their names and relative paths. |

I'd like to list files on drive D that don't exist drive E.
An identical file named "May-2023.txt" exists on both drives.
On drive D the path to the file is: D:\Accounts\May-2023.txt
On drive E the path to the file is: E:\Text Files\Figures\May-2023.txt
I set the left source to D:\ and the right source to E:
Under Options I select "Include Subfolders". I set Compare Method to "Size"
I select only "Show Left Unique Items" in the View menu.
Winmerge says "May_2023.txt" is unique to the left, even though it exists in another folder on the right.
How do you get Winmerge to recognize if "May-2023.txt" exists ANYHWERE on the right, and is therefore not unique to the left?
