You are the first reporting this error so I have to do to you some questions.
What happen when you try to catalogue your huge folder? The program stop responding?
This occurs after few or many files/subfolders having been processed?
What is the correct number of pdf files present in your folder/disk (tip - use the OS find function to find *.pdf files and next see the number found)?
This also occurs if you navigate thru folders without the subfolder check box checked? If yes what are the characteristics of the folder where the error occur, (level, number of files...).
