I guess the attitude is "better safe then sorry",  LOL

I've been following this thread as I used to have it on my 32 bit machine, but haven't tried it on my Win 8 machine. I'll definitely give this a shot now. Good to see it's working out.
 
Thanks Jammer for the continuous work on this!!

Hey Mesh, really appreciate this chap.  It definitely helps me keep on working on it for sure.  I've been testing it on Windows 8.1 here on my Mac under Parallels and it's been rock solid so far so you should be good to go.  In fact I'm going to update the web site with the compatibility!!

:)  Cheers, Guys!

hi.. some newbie questions.......
 
Can this be run from the tools menu?
Does export leave the original file in the same location?

Currently no, but this could easily be added in a future release.

SampleSort only ever creates copies of files in the location you desire.  It will never remove any thing from the real file system.  It may well remove entries in it's database if it tries to preview a file and SampleSort detects that the file is no longer present on the file system.

Some people have mentioned in the past that rather than having a "Blocking List" that details the location you DONT want to scan it should have an "Inclusion List" for the locations that you do want to scan.
 
The problem with this is generally speaking people organise their projects logically, meaning that you will probably use per project audio file storage and that will generally be on a specific drive on your system.  Meaning that you can list this location in the Blocking list so that these locations will not be scanned when you use SampleSort.
 
This means that the samples you have exported to these locations for use in projects won't generate duplicate entries in the database on subsequent scans of your DAW.
 
Let me know if that isn't clear and I'll explain some more.  I know that I really want to update and expand the help file for the next release.
 
Cheers Guys!

Thanks Jammer!! Good to see you're working on this and improving it.

Will be installing today after I finish some work duties

Nightmare ... I'm looking into it now.

Try this ...
www.jamsoft.co.uk/samplesortfiles/setup/SampleSortInstaller.msi
 
Hugely annoying but I've made so many changes that I'd overlooked something very basic.  This is the trouble, I'm trying to build a complicated app and I have literally no beta testers.  I've tried to get a crew together in the past but it's hugely difficult getting people to offer time for a free app ...

Try running a complete uninstall, then install again.

I completely uninstalled and installed again.  going to send you the log

Try running a complete uninstall, then install again.

I had the same error message and also tried a complete uninstall/install to no avail......

I'm really sorry about this guys.  The web sites installer has been rolled back to v0.7.0.
 
www.jamsoft.co.uk/samplesortfiles/setup/SampleSortInstaller.msi
 
You'll also need to un-install the current version you have, and delete this directory before installing 0.7.0 again:
 
C:\ProgramData\JamSoft
 
I need another test machine.  I can't actually meaningfully test this and carry on development without one, all my Windows instances are used for development and just don't reflect users environments any more.  I may have to pop to a shop tomorrow nad pick up an 'el cheapo craptop for these duties.
