I downloaded and installed this app with the previous reviewer's comments in mind.
The software linked here did indeed display that behavior unfortunately.
However, I went to the authors web site and found a link to a version 1.4.0.4.
After upgrading, that behavior is now obsolete (it is apparently backwards compatible because my db was not wrecked after upgrade. However, I simply deleted the application folder in my user directory and restarted the program (without file "relocation" / duplication))
(I gave 4 stars for a different reason, mainly due to it not being a mature application yet. I do believe it will soon be 5 star material)

O.K I'm not exactly a power user,therefore I really cant appreciate all of
its functions. This is a good program; but 4 things left me irritated.
1. Why the hell does it make duplicates of files instead of just indexing
and if that isnt bad, all the duplicates get stored in the 'C' drive in
documents/settings... folder.
2.As said of the irritant above, there was no option to change the
duplicates location.( Whats the point of having your data duplicated and
wasting disk space )
3.Why doesnt it just move the originals, instead of creating duplicates of the files?
4.Imagine having duplicate copies of your movie collection.....nightmare!( by the way
BenuBird, should stick to documents, there are other utilities that are dedicated to movie
catlogueing..etc )
But regardless of those cons, this still is a usefull program.
