Easy Duplicate Cleaner

It is not uncommon for a considerable amount of disk space to be taken up by files that are stored more than once in multiple locations, and removing these items is far from easy without the right tool to help you out.

Easy Duplicate Cleaner is an easy-to-use application that can help you find these unnecessary items and delete them in a few simple steps. It can be used by experts and novices alike, but it offers a fairly limited set of features.

It is clear that Easy Duplicate Cleaner was designed from the ground up to be as novice-friendly as possible, which is why it is certain to be appreciated by inexperienced users.

When configuring the scanning parameters, you can specify which locations should be taken into consideration, as well as which folders should be excluded from the search. The program also offers you the option of scanning subdirectories.

While a full scan is likely to yield the best results, it is also possible to limit the search to certain file categories, such as photos, videos, archives or documents. However, you cannot exclude files below a certain size from the analysis.

Once the scan has been completed, the program organizes the duplicate items into groups and selects the ones that can be removed automatically. Unfortunately, though, the auto-select parameters cannot be customized.

Of course, it is possible to fine-tune the automatic selection in order to ensure no important files are removed. However, the results cannot be sorted based on file name or path, and no search function is included.

After determining which items need to be processed, you can copy or move them to a selected folder, send them to the Recycle Bin or delete them entirely.

When taking everything into consideration, Easy Duplicate Cleaner is a useful application that, true to its name, is very easy to use. It enables you to find and remove duplicate items with very little effort, but it does lack a number of important features.
