When you're using the Duplicate File function, it creates hidden files (.fuse_hiddenXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX where X is 18 random numbers & letters). The files created open as the same file as it's flagged a duplicate with (in my case video files).
After looking up that these files are temporary files, I tried to delete them with the program and thought they were deleted. However when I ran the program again, the files were back again. I went to file explorer (Dolphin), turned on hidden files and manually deleted them. However when you run the program again, it creates the files again

This files are just renamed deleted files.
If these files still exist after the application ends, it means that some other application is using them and I don't think anything can be done.
Thanks - after trying a few other things (including shutting down the app and rebooting), the issue seems to have gone away. However I'm not quite sure why czkawka was picking them up in the first place?
Is it possible to include a tick box to include/not include hidden files as part of the search criteria in a future release?
