They have both a free and a pay version, the freebie being well endowed. www.v-com.com/support/intro_PowerDesk.html It's actually a Windows Explorer replacement with with a LOT more things added onto it like the File Finder and single or dual panes a la the old windows versions. It'll do Finds by path/name or folder or drive. Faster than Windows search, too. Start with the freebie version; I suspect you'll like it.

Google. For image duplicates or near-duplicates (adjustable), the best I have found is called Unique Filer. It is not new (there /is/ a new Beta version to test) and looks a bit funky but it is miles ahead in usability and effectiveness than anything else I've tried. It ALSO does all other files, not just images. http://www.uniquefiler.com/ BTW, you should be aware SOME files are in more than one place for a very good reason. -- We look at each other; see that we do not know each other, stare, and go off. Such looks are lashes. I feel the whole cruelty and indifference of the world in them. - Virginia Woolf On Monday, June 09, 2008 11:10 AM Allen wrote: Re: Anyone out there have any good experience with a duplicate file finder utility?

As someone else mentioned, though, be careful what you ask for--you might get it, or lose it in this case. You can remove dupes that are needed. Perhaps the others also do this, but DoubleKiller does not automatically delete files; it displays a list of dupes and you can decide for yourself which ones to delete.
