Try the Free Duplicate Finder by MindGems for exact duplicates and the dedicated Duplicate mp3 finder for audio.

I’ve never seen a PC, so screwed up by its owner, as one where a Duplicate File Finder was indiscriminately used. That means, used by someone not really understanding what they were doing.

There are files on every PC that MUST be in multiple places for everything to work properly. Start deleting those multiple files and you will trash your PC.

Now, if you get very selective and only look for multiple Pictures, for instance, that’s another matter. Or multiple sound files, movies, etc.

So it’s not so much a matter of what Multiple File Finder to use as ‘should you use one at all’.

Good Luck and Happy Holidays!

I totally agree with this. That is why I use the FREE duplicate finder by MindGems: http://www.mindgems.com
It has protection for system files and folders which is turned on by default. If you are experienced enough you can turn it off from the settings
