-===== Filenames not to remove from Dirs =====+===== Filenames not to remove =====
 This setting allows you to specify rules for files to ignore in your ToSort folders. Any ignored files are still scanned by RomVault, but they are flagged with an "ignore" status and will not be removed or used for fixes. To force the scanning engine to completely ignore files and not attempt to scan, prefix the the rule with ''ignore:''. Some examples include: This setting allows you to specify rules for files to ignore in your ToSort folders.

-===== Double Check Delete =====+===== Double check file exists elsewhere before deleting =====
 Enabling this setting ensures that a good copy of the file to be deleted exists elsewhere before deleting. This setting makes delete actions a bit slower which is a tradeoff for ensuring files are not deleted due to a misconfiguration. You should only disable this if you are sure your Directory Rules are mapped correctly and you do not have multiple DAT paths mapping to the same directory.  Enabling this setting ensures that a good copy of the file to be deleted exists elsewhere before deleting.

-<WRAP info>Its highly recommended to keep this setting enabled. When this option is enabled RomVault does not blindly trust the information in cache for delete operations. For example, if you scanned a directory of files then RomVault would store the information about those files in the cache. If you then moved that directory or deleted the files without performing another scan, then RomVault still assumes you have those files in that location. In this scenario, if Double Check Delete were set to "Disabled" then RomVault may delete the only copy of that file you have instead of moving it to your Primary ToSort.</WRAP>+<WRAP info>Its highly recommended to keep this setting enabled.

 In the rare event of an application or system crash its possible that the cache file can become corrupted. If this occurs the cache backup file can be renamed so that it becomes the primary cache, thus restoring your scan history within a few minutes of the crash. In the event of switching to a cache backup its advised to rescan any directories that were being scanning when the crash occurred to ensure the cache file is in sync with the files on disk. In the rare event of an application or system crash its possible that the cache file can become corrupted.
