Duplicate File Search Utility

[tirediron]

Looking for a (preferably) freeware Win 7 compatible utility to search for duplicate and possible duplicate files on my computer(s). I know there are a ton out there, but I also know that things can get sketchy in the freeware world. Appreciate any suggestions/recommendations in this area.

Thanks

Hi, I dont know if you mean all types os file formats but regarding to photography, I really like to use picasa to search for my duplicates.

Cheers.

Sorry, this is specifically NOT for photographs, primarily for mp3 files.

Are you looking for file name duplicates or hash value duplicates?

I could find you some very simple command line actions you could run.

Primarily file name & size

After looking around command line is going to a lot of work compared to this free application dupeGuru - Duplicate file scanner
LifeHacker ranged this as the best duplication app. http://lifehacker.com/the-best-duplicate-file-finder-for-windows-1696492476

What I use, and right now its around $30, is Xplorer2. It replaces the windows explorer so it's not limited to just finding duplicate files.

Thanks all! "Dupe Guru" seems to be doing what I need.
