Duplicate & Same Files Searcher 4.1

Many users think that duplicate files are not a very important issue and can be easily ignored, but they're wrong, as duplicate files can uselessly consume a remarkable amount of disk space, and they can also affect the overall performance of your system. There's no reason to ignore this pesky subject especially since there are specialized duplicate detection and removal tools like Duplicate & Same Files Searcher that make taking care of duplicate files a really easy, fast, and efficient job.

The thing that makes Duplicate & Same Files Searcher stand aside from the rather many other duplicate finding tools is the fact that it can also handle NTFS hard links (sets of duplicate files that point to the same data on an NTFS hard disk). Therefore this cool application can not only delete duplicate files or to move them to another location, but also replace the duplicates with NTFS hard links as well, and this is a rather unique feature that no other duplicate finding tools offer.

Though powerful and accurate thanks to the support for hard link detection and byte-to-byte comparison, Duplicate & Same Files Searcher is also surprisingly easy-to-use. Its interface is reasonably intuitive and self-explanatory. Furthermore, it won't take long to find the duplicates, as it includes a fast search engine. Another interesting feature of this handy tool is the fact that it can also display the fragmentation of files. Even file compression is featured. Once detected, the selection of the duplicated can be filtered by various criteria, and the duplicates can be moved, deleted, or replaced with NTFS hard links.

To sum it all up, Duplicate & Same Files Searcher is a really nice duplicate finding tool that offers some unique features and the fact that it's also free makes it even more attractive.
