Same Pictures Displayed (three copies)?

Hello,
I am seeing a weird problem with Pro. The software keeps displaying multiple copies of the same picture. I am seeing up to three copies of the same picture displayed before a new one is selected. I could not find a setting in the configuration that could be causing this.
This symptom started after I upgraded to the newest version - 9.0.10
Any ideas how to fix this?

Hello,
check the page Images in gPhotoShow settings, make sure every folder is listed only once and if there is root folder no sub-folders are listed. Click on "View files" button to see the files gPhotoShow found in configured folders
Check also "Panoramic Images" page, you could have added some folder also there.

Thanks for the quick response!
I found something interesting...
I checked the "View Files" and it shows only 47K files found, however when the show starts it claims there are 164K files in the "show". I have the file path and number of files count down displayed to see how far the photo show is through the total pictures. As you suggested, I also checked to see that my file folders were only added once to the images and panoramic listings. Odd that it shows three times the number of photos when it starts running the "show".

If you added the same folders in "Images" and in "Panoramic Images", the same files will be displayed twice.
In "Panoramic Images" you should only add folders containing panoramic images, nothing else. If your pano are mixed with normal images use auto-detect page in Images
If you added the same folders a third time in "360 panoramic images", then you will have three copies of the same images.

I forgot to mention that I am using the "scrapbook".
EDIT:
THAT WORKED! I deleted the file folders from the panoramic and 360 no more duplicates!
