I really like Duplicate Finder. An especially nice touch was when it told me that I was deleting all copies of a file. I tried a few other duplicate file finders and hated them.

As a Computer Forensic Examiner, I have a great need to maintain multiple copies of electronic artifacts for extended periods of time. This, however, can become a burden in terms of disk storage consumption and needless redundancy by error.

I just purchased Duplicate Finder in order to support my non-business needs and, in the process of using it for the non-business purposes, I pleasantly discovered the tremendous advantages it could bring to the business activities.

In a very short period of time, I was able to eliminate previously undiscovered duplicate files, which reclaimed just over 491 GB of a total of 2.2 TB storage space. The interface is tremendously easy to use and intuitive in every way.

What an excellent solution for someone who over duplicates in order to be on the safe side, or just every day accumulation that tends to build over the normal course of time and file/folder management.

Thank very much to the Ashisoft Team, I will be purchasing additional tools very soon.

I ran this application on a directory containing over 620,000 files. It scanned the directory and then presented me with an out of memory error. My computer has over 3GB of memory and plenty to run this application. There is an internal limit to the number of files it can handle. I instead used the Free "Duplicate File Finder" written in .NET and it ran fine without any problems. It also does a byte-to-byte check and is just as good just a more basic program but it works!
