We're having a conversation over the course of weeks which is somewhat humorous. Yes, I've tried the clear all button. I imagine that I've tried everything and I wonder if it's not a question in the attributes of the program or if it's a question of a bug. I'm seriously doubting that it's meant to do this under any circumstances and it's simply not working as it's supposed to. It still has those tagged items, oh boy! Is there a file I can delete that contains the database of all tagged items? I'd rather start over than put up with 200+ tagged items that lead nowhere, it really gums up searches which makes much of the program worthless which is sad it looks like a great program.
although I don't know if it would help much here's an image of the error message. You can also see the grayed out Remove From List button on top (the clear all does nothing as I described). It's mostly being used as a way to catalogue my comic books but I decided to delete all the pictures except the one in question. As you can see it's a picture of nothing, the file simply no longer exists.
Lol it's funny. How about this? You export the database. Then tag2find will make a .xml file which contains all the information. Then you can manually EDIT the .xml file with any text editor and get rid of those tags associated to the deleted files. And then you import the edited .xml file, overwriting exist database. I think it should work as long as you don't change the file locations in between.
Oh! Actually I think you might not
even have to edit the .xml file. When importing database, tag2find is supposed to ignore any tag item if the original file does not exist anymore. So if you just export the database and import it, I think those files will be gone in the database. Let me know if it works.
