Remove Duplicate Files - automatically remove duplicate files with user-friendly duplicate file remover. Best way to remove duplicate files - remove duplicate files using duplicate file remover wizard, remove duplicate files and remove duplicates.
Features: Remove Duplicate Files is capable of removing duplicate files automatically. It is able to identify and remove duplicates in all file types. Remove Duplicate Files Premium will remove duplicate files - automatically, even if they have different names and are packed in archives. It will also automatically sort and organize all music and photos. You can use the program to remove duplicates not only from your hard drive but from the music player or the photo viewer. The duplicate remover wizard for photos and music can even organize the collection into the structure you prefer. For example you want to organize music by genre, then by album and then the song. With photos also you can specify the structure and music and photos will get organized as per the template automatically while duplicates are removed.
The interface is simple. The initial wizard sets things up for duplicate removal. The wizard takes you through the settings step by step. The initial wizards takes you through a 7 step process, other two take fewer steps. The steps include defining the directory structure.
Overall: Simple enough operation and the organizing features are useful. How effective the duplicate removal is, is difficult to judge. Name based duplicate removal would miss the files that have same content but different name even slightly. Intentional same name file which are actually different and located in different directories can get removed too. Content based duplicate removal may not be able to remove two different files of the same content but of different lengths. Two songs of a little different recording time for example.
