Specific indexed files duplicated into DT4

What I thought would be a quick tidy up session on DT4 has expanded ~ with the finding of two files with hundreds/ thousands of duplicates and I’d appreciate the Forums thoughts as to cause.

Using DT4, folder indexed to iCloud - the files are not duplicated on iCloud

Syncing set up some time ago, iCloud + Bonjour - working fine

I’ve been working on a synced MBP and this was a return to base iMac - but the duplicates are also on the MBP

similar topics on the forum do not address the same issue, such as why only two files

thanks, Justin

Since duplicates in DT must be in different groups, a first step might be to figure out what happened to your group/folder structure.

Your Settings > Sync > Conflicts in DEVONthink is likely set to Duplicate documents.
In DEVONthink, hold the Option key and select Help > Report Bug.

Sync not set to Duplicate Conflict on any device

Looking through the folder structure now

Bug reported

thanks Jim

You’re welcome.
