DupeRAZOR

Backing up data to ensure that no important files are lost in the event of a computer fail is always a good thing, yet more than often this can result in a lot of disk space being occupied by multiple versions of the same files, and it's not always simple to get rid of all duplicates, unless the right tool is used.

DupeRAZOR is one of the many applications designed to help users to easily find and remove duplicate files from their computers.

The software comes with a simple, straightforward interface, albeit one that feels a bit outdated when compared to what newer operating systems have to offer.

With this program, users can easily select the drives and folders they want to be searched for duplicate files, right from the app's main window. They can also scan removable drives to see whether they contain duplicates.

Despite its older looks, the tool can scan full hard drives pretty fast, and can also be set to perform specific actions for discovered duplicates, or to prompt users to choose one. The app can run in the background, without user interaction, except for the specific cases where one is needed.

Provided that the application finds duplicates on the computer and the user wants to free some space up, these files can be automatically deleted. Users can also back up deleted files to a specific directory, or to delete duplicates permanently, all directly from within the application.

The program can be set to leave the last file in a group of duplicates untouched, which ensures that at least one copy of each file remains on the hard drive. Moreover, it can also exclude Windows directories from the scanning process.

DupeRAZOR can easily prove a great option for users looking to easily find and remove duplicate files from their hard drives. Although it features outdated looks, the app does its job fast, while also includes options that make it safe to delete duplicates without losing important files.
