Hello /w/, after some months lurking on 4chan and related imageboards, I am now in need to a program to catch doubles in my many folders. Anyone mind directing me to such a software? Thanks.
<--- /g/ is that way
>>380149Which OS?
check out the program Beyond Compare 2...its a little confusing at first but pretty simple to use after messing with it for a while. when I find the exe. i'll try and upload it but I think it's only a 30 day trial..we'll find out
Right click in the folder.Sort by -> SizeAnd that'll catch most of them unless you have a bunch of the same wallpaper in different resolutions or something.Instructions are for Windows but I'm sure any other OS can do something similar.
>>380156WIndows XP SP2 if that helps.>>380205I'll check it out as well. THanks.>>380205Yes, it helps when looking through one folder; but it doesn't work when going through multiple folders. Thanks for the advice though.
>>380149ACDSee Pro is excellent for that. I'm not sure if the basic version has the feature, but the pro version has a tool for finding exact duplicates. In addition, it is a completely badass image management suite.
>>380149Source?(Personally I use a bit of homebrew software that catches duplicates and near-duplicates as I download them, but it isn't nearly good enough to be published yet.)
NoClone is good
Yea, found the beyond compare .exe and it is a 30 day trial but it only counts days per day you use it instead of a straight 30 days which is cool.download it here: http://www.scootersoftware.com/download.php
I use dupdetector and it works fairly well.http://www.photo-freeware.net/dupdetector.php
Meh, those are all freeware/shareware. Any free utilities that do the job?
i use dupkiller. it's free and works really damn well. http://www.dupkiller.net/index_en.html
>>380552Nope, dupkiller isn't free. The official website itself says is explicitly: "Freeware"
>>380598you must be trollingfreeware is freeshareware usually gives you limited usage or a few days of full usage unless you pay

>>380598no one cares about your politics, fuck off back to /.free as in beer is free enough.
>>380648>>380673As usual, the people who are trolling are those who are the first to say other people are trolling.>>380598Thought that the previous post was an answer to the question and thus pointed out that it wasn't.P.S. I don't see how politics comes into this. What software people use and or write and under which licensing terms is strictly a civil matter and has not that much to do with politics, no?P.P.S. An actual useful link:http://sourceforge.net/search/?type_of_search=soft&type_of_search=soft&words=duplicate+imagesNo sense in feeding the trolls if that's all this post does.
Thanks for the comments.
Try Duplicate Image Finder. It's free and works really well. Will scan the entire computer and can even find pictures that are the same even if different sizes, resolutions, backgrounds, slight alterations, etc...
