So I wanted to thank the creator of this tool... wow I never realized how ridiculously AWESOME this software is. It has a slight learning curve but once you understand how to use it, it is very helpful for keeping rom sets up to date!

Anyways, I was going to put in a feature request to allow completed dats to be sorted or hidden from view but it turns out that won't be necessary I just found out how to create folders in the profiler, which is very useful. I decided to create the following folders to house my dat sets

Profiles
 - MAME
   - Completed
   - Missing
 - No-Intro
   - Completed
   - Missing
 - Redump
   - Completed
   - Missing

Currently there are only two ways to view dats in different folders at the same time; for instance redump completed & missing dats

1. Manually move the dats to the same folder
    - Down Side: extra work involved, then you'll have to move them back to the original folder when done
2. Select the all profiles option
    - Down Side: it not only shows the desired dats but all available dats

So onto my feature request. Would you be able to create an all profiles option for each folder instead of just an overall all profiles option. Meaning that if I right clicked the redump folder and selected all profiles then I would get to view the dats in the redump completed and missing folders while excluding all other dats from the no-into & mame folders?

...you're welcome.....however, don't count on it in the near future.
Currently I'm pretty busy with real (family) live and usually pick some little requests from that list to get included...depending on the time effort needed.
So it may or may not come .... sooner or later ....  :)

I know you have a lot on your plate, but I just thought of something else that would be nice to have in clrmamepro, which would be a totals column in the profile viewer.

I think it would be nice to add a totals row that would show total Missing Sets / Missing Roms / Missing Bytes (which auto updates when a folder is selected or if more than one Dat file is highlighted)

Anyway, thanks again for all your help!

hmm...sounds a bit...weird ;)

Since it's a column, the totals would appear besides each profile, but are calculated over the full folder? Or did I get something wrong? Fake a screenshot....
