Duplicate files · Duplicates in cloud accounts

Why does my cloud duplicate scan say "partial view"?

Short answer: On a very large account, one pass covers as much as it sensibly can and says so instead of implying it checked everything. The duplicates shown are real; click Scan now again to cover more of the account.

On a very large account, Storage Studio covers as much as it sensibly can in one pass and then says so — "This account is very large, so this is a partial view — scan again to cover more of it." — instead of implying the first look was complete.

The duplicates it lists are real and can be cleaned. Click Scan now again to cover more of the account. If no duplicates turned up in that part, the message says "No duplicates found so far" rather than claiming the account is clean.
