Find duplicate files and remove them quickly, with confidence.

FIND AND REMOVE DUPLICATE FILES SAFELY
Duplicate File Detective uses state-of-the-art file content analysis technology to find duplicate files. You can search multiple folders, drives, removable storage devices, even network shares - all in a single pass. Then move, archive, or remove duplicates quickly and safely.

Finding and removing duplicate files does more than just free up disk space - it reduces the expense of time-consuming backup operations, brings clarity to document storage areas, speeds up file searches and indexing processes, and reduces clutter.
