Use relative paths by default
Current NourForge and supported external formats prefer exact relative-path verification when path data is available.
NOURFORGE ARCHIVE VERIFY CHECKER · GUIDE
Verify partial volumes and relocated files
Choose matching behaviour deliberately when one manifest covers multiple discs or files have moved from their original relative paths.
Understand safe relocation recovery
Where supported, an exact filename or exact SHA-256 can help identify a moved file. Relocation is surfaced in results so a PASS does not hide the path difference.
Enable Multi-disc / Partial only for a partial source
This mode verifies files present on the selected volume while treating manifest entries on other expected volumes as informational rather than failures or warnings.
Leave partial mode off for a complete archive
For a complete archive, missing and extra files are meaningful discrepancies and should remain visible.
Treat closest-name matches as legacy assistance
Closest-name fallback applies only to supported legacy situations, uses conservative similarity rules and raises warnings. Confirm the actual content evidence before relying on it.
