  1. The response given by Ron was pretty bogus. As a programmer of some 35+ years, I can tell you it would not consume more than about one-10,000th of second for each "hit" to update an integer value. The changing the display to Red+Bold would only have to be done the very first encounter of a hit for each scan and that too is a 10,000th of a second fetaure. Given that the hits are likely to be VERY few, even those accumulated 10,000ths of a second are going to make no perceptable difference to the scan duration.
  2. I'd like to see a progress bar when scanning so I know whether to wait and get back to work in a minute or two, or go have an early lunch. After first installing MWB and the first scan is done and after each subsequent scan, what about using the total file count as a fair guide to the number of files to be scanned next time. Use that number as the "Max" for the progress bar. It may be off by a bit, but not by a lot and would give a pretty close idea of the time to wait for the scan to complete. I just did a quick scan and it topped out at 37,700 items (programmer - lotsa code files) scanned. In a week's use of my PC, that number would not vary by more than about 200 files up or down. Even if it was a 1000 new and/or deleted files between scans, it is still only a tiny percentage error (2.4%) for the end point of the progress bar. Make a great product even better.
