Simple Duplicate Finder v1.2.0.3
webfork on 13 Jan 2019
Simple Duplicate Finder helps track down similar files either to delete extras and save space or to compare versions. While most duplicate-searching programs are looking for exact copies, SDF uses a Percentage Search, allowing you to adjust the percentage difference required for a file to be considered a duplicate. Once scanned, the program will display the number of bytes which differ as well as the specific percentage match between files.

Duplicate files
Swiss File Knife - A Command Line Tools Collection combines many functions in a single, portable executable that belongs onto every USB stick.

Read the list of highlight features.
Fast Duplicate File Finder FREEWARE
Fast Duplicate File Finder FREEWARE will find duplicate files in a folder, computer or entire network. The application will compare the content of the files and will find duplicates even if they are using different file names. The Professional version can find similar files regardless of their file types. It will analyze the file data in order to find duplicates and not just file attributes like name and size as the standard clone removers do. It uses advanced algorithms while searching for related files and provides accurate results, which is not true for the commonly advertised FUZZY search methods.
The duplicate remover uses fast binary comparison algorithm and has internal preview supporting a lot of image, video, music and text file formats. It can also preview the common file formats. After the scan process is finished the program shows all the duplicated files in groups and can automatically mark the oldest for deleting. The auto-mark algorithm has advanced settings to exclude from auto mark files with user specified extensions, file sizes, file dates, and file names. A “source” folder can also be excluded from the auto mark. There is an option to protect system files and folders which is enabled by default and guarantees that the application will not remove any critical system files.
Download the FREE duplicate finder and recover up to 50% free space.
