Gunamoi Software

A free GUI tool to search for, and list, duplicate files.  This is free software and is provided free of charge, 'as is' with no warranty.  No registration required. 

ListDuplicates searches for and identifies any duplicated files in the specified folder and sub-folders.  The program ignores file names and dates.  The first pass compares file sizes, and any files with a unique size are pruned from the list.  The second pass compares file checksums (SHA256 hash), and again prunes any unique files from the list.  The final list of duplicate files may be output in a choice of formats, including: comma separated (CSV) for manipulation in a spreadsheet; simple text file (TXT) for easy manipulation in a word processor; or formatted HTML or PDF files (just because I could). 

Error messages may result if trying to search files in folders where you do not have access privileges.  In this case, try "Run as administrator" to minimise problems. 

ListDuplicates has limitations.  Only files with exactly identical contents are listed.  Even a single byte of a file changed will mean the file is not a duplicate.  For example, two images may appear identical to a human, but if the image files are not identical, say if exif tags have been removed from one, or if one has been re-saved in a slightly different format, they will not be listed as duplicates.  Or if you open a document in Microsoft Word, or OpenOffice, etc, and save it to a new location without editing, the contents will still be slightly changed and the files will not be identified as duplicates.
