You may batch rename, copy or move them, delete them outright or run custom commands on them.

Plenty of actions are provided to deal with duplicate files found during the scan. Apart from that, they allow you to change the threshold used to determine whether files are duplicates and other factors such as a minimum size in Kilobyte or custom arguments that you may add to the scan. The program matches file contents by default but you may change that to file name or folders instead. Information like file names, the full path and size are displayed, and as is a match score determining how similar listed files are. Each file and its duplicates are listed in the interface with files highlighted in blue indicating a new batch of duplicate files. The results are displayed right after the scan. If you want, you can even add multiple root folders which may be useful if you want to compete two or multiple folders with each other. This can be the root of a hard drive or a folder of a drive. You are asked to pick a root folder for the scan on start. The programs work in a similar fashion though. There is dupeGuru, a general purpose duplicate file finder, and two special editions called dupeGuru Music Edition and dupeGuru Picture Edition optimized for finding duplicate media files.Ĭore differences between the general edition of dupeGuru and the media editions are that they support media features such as metadata and provide additional information based on those. This would appear to be an issue with XnView not being compatible with being launched through windows default.What sets it apart from other duplicate file finders is that there is not only one but three versions of the program available for download. The behavior after calling QDesktopServices.openUrl(url) is entirely dependent on Qt's implementation on windows and has no issue with other applications such as window's built-in photo viewer. For step 3 I am interpreting that as you double click on one of the results to open the item? If so dupeguru only calls QDesktopServices.openUrl(url), which results in the default program for that file being launched to open it.
