It seems OK to me; it produces a Leeds-style diagram in HTML format with a searchable table of all the matches below it.
The only thing that not everybody might like is that you have to give it your log-in details to Ancestry or whichever site you want it to cluster the data from. I'd been making clusters that were probably too large, because I included X who matched Y and Z, and A and B who matched Y, and Q and R who matched B, etc., all in the same cluster, which this system doesn't. You can see the output it produces here: https://www.geneticaffairs.com/image...ic_Affairs.pdf The names in the table are hyperlinked to the person's profile in whichever website you've used. |

Thanks Mary, definitely going to look into trying this out.

Edit - I clicked the "Download matches" button and it showed that I have over 27,000 DNA matches but it has only scanned 12,000 of them so far! |

As far as I can make out so far, the actual Google Chrome extension is useless, probably because it has not been updated to keep in step with all ancestry's software changes, but it has produced the database, and there is a very useful blog with info on what to do with that database, which I'm currently having a go at: https://dnahelpersql.blogspot.com/p/...e-manager.html |

A week is forever. I tried running it myself as I'm impatient. At first it just ran away flashing screen after screen, now it seems to be sitting there with a match open and a box saying scanning matches and a cancel option. The match does not change unless I cancel and resume. Is this correct or has it stalled somehow?

Toni, judging from Kite's experience and my reading of the programmer's blog I don't think it's stalled. It's just a very long-running program and the display you're seeing is just the last milestone it passed along the way. What Kite did was smart, where she set the computer never to go to sleep.

My computer doesn't go to sleep but I'm never sure if it works if the browser window is not on top, like it isn't now as I'm in here. I'm even running it over night which I don't normally do.
I'll wait a few more days and see what happens. I've been rather tired this week so don't remember what day I started it on lol
