USB Removable Device

Selina

Location is added through the file library menu, however it doesn’t seem to scan and I can’t remove it to just add a single folder. There appears to be no scroll bar anywhere on the software which is also making this difficult to use.
This is urgent, I purchased the software to scan photos for face recognition for funeral preparation and if this doesn’t work I need to know asap and change to different software.
I can’t copy the photos to my C drive as my laptop is out of room, all my photos are on an external USB drive.

Dear Selina, thank you for using Tonfotos!

First of all, you have to have some free room on your C: drive, otherwise, none of the programs will work properly. Please make sure you have at least several gigabytes free on your main drive.

As to scanning USB, this functionality is used successfully by many Tonfotos users. In order to understand what is going wrong in your case, I need more data, if you don’t mind.

“Doesn’t seem to scan” - you can check the scanning status in the lower left corner of the application window. When program is not scanning, there will be “Ready”, otherwise there will be description of what exactly is being processed right now. Also you need to understand that scanning can be lengthy process, if amount of images is large. Typically during first scan, on the same bottom left corner you can see progress bar with time estimation.
“I can’t remove it” - if you are taking about Library locations dialog, then please pay your attention to these two buttons in the bottom left corner. You can add and delete locations using those buttons.

Please let me know if this does not resolve the issue.

Thank you, I have removed it and added just a folder, I will see how it goes and let you know. How do I get a scroll bar? Now I have to select a photo and arrow down through them.

I know that this is slightly unusual, and it has been already discussed many times on this forum, but main photo feed in Tonfotos does not have scroll bar, and there are multiple reasons for that. But it does not mean it is unusable, you will get used to that quite quickly.
