Duplicate File Remover

Duplicate File Remover is a program with a pretty self-explanatory name - it allows you to locate duplicate files and delete them, in order to free up space on your hard drive.

The interface of the application is based on a standard wizard where you can follow several simple steps to get the job done.

You can make the app locate executable files, documents, images, music, videos, mobile phone and game console files, along with archives; simply establish which file types you want Duplicate File Remover to look for.

In the following steps, you may establish the target folders or volumes to scan, along with the search criteria (e.g. find identical names, find identical content).

You can filter the search by date and time, file size and attributes. But you can also create an exclusion list. Once the scanning procedure is done, you can sort the results list, as well as delete, copy or move duplicate items. A detailed report can be saved to HTML.

The simple-to-use utility requires a moderate amount of CPU and system memory, is pretty responsive to commands and quickly finishes a scan and clean job.
