Delete missing attachments
I'm using Zotfile to rename and move my attachments. I had a lot of duplicates when I transported my library over from Mendeley. I ended up with a bunch of files with 'filename.pdf' and 'filename2.pdf', so I deleted all the '*2.pdf' files; easy enough.
Is there any way to remove the '*2.pdf' attachments from the items in my library? Now if I try to rename an item, it places the '*2.pdf' file back in my folder for Zotfile, which I don't want.

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Before commenting here, you should strongly consider starting a new discussion instead. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
The files existed, so I had duplicate pdf's that got moved using Zotfile, which were linked to a single item after I merged duplicates.
As far as I can tell, that's what happened. I'm new to Zotero so maybe the mechanics are different than what I think.
Is there a way to select all files resulting from a search? At this point, I have to go through and select all the unfaded attachments.
