Duplicate Files Finder is a cross-platform application for finding and removing duplicate files by deleting, creating hardlinks or creating symbolic links. A special algorithm minimizes the amount of data read from disk, so the program is very fast.

  • Searched my music files...showed a lot of doubles.....they where not doubles and it deleted all my files and emptied my folder. wow just WTF can u please tell me how this is useful? its just as well i had a bkup folder or else I would have lost my files for good. didnt even put them in the recycle bin. do not use this software
  • This a very efficient, simple, and solid program. It works great for *finding* duplicate files. Deleting them may take some time if you have a lot, because you need to delete each one manually. That would have been impractical for my purposes. So a wrote a short python script that parses the output file (which you can save to any .txt) and deletes all the dups of a given file except the one with the shortest path. The gist is linked below. gist.github.com/Jeremiah-England/53a96e2d0b3f3cf1ba7ccbb26b6f16a0
  • Found best DuplicateFilesDeleter
  • Brilliant: - super simple install (windows) - finds duplicates in seconds - friendly GUI to delete duplicates
  • It's a good application. But... the settable file sizes are in what measurement? Mbytes? Kbytes?
