Duplicate file searcher
The program about which we will talk today is Clone Remover.
Probably, many of you have faced rather an unpleasant situation when instead of one copy of this or that file there were three such copies on your computer. Such copies are called to be duplicate files. Differently, they are absolutely similar to originals (that is they have the same content and identical size), can have the same name (or another name), but thus as well as the original ones they occupy disk space. And if, for example, the original song has the size of 5 Mb, and there are 5 such copies it means that you spend 25 Mb of physical space for 5 Mb of real content.
The problem is easy to solve if to use a special software which not only will find but also remove all duplicate files. Such program should be simple and accessible to ordinary users, have the clear interface and be enough functional to solve all necessary problems. Program Clone Remover completely meets these requirements.
Clone Remover is the youngish program which urged to solve all problems connected with duplicate files. For example, to find and remove duplicate files.
The duplicate file searcher consists of several windows which alternately replace each other therefore the user reaches the basic purpose – the removal of duplicate files. Each window is accordingly the next answer to the asked question, and the result of this answer is transition to a new window.
The similar approach allows to place all information and the control panel in the program interface doing its as much as possible user-friendly.
Let’s consider how all it works.
In the first window it is necessary for you to make the basic choice for what you want to take advantage of duplicate file searcher’s possibilities. For example, to search for duplicate files, to open the list of duplicates from a file, to restore the files earlier moved to a separate folder.
If you have chosen the first variant (that is to search for duplicate files), and it is the most chosen variant the program will move you to a following window in which it is necessary for you to define what kind of files you want to search. For example, the exact duplicates, similar images, mp3/wma/ogg music files with identical headings. This window allows to specify criteria of search and to define a circle of files among which the program will search for duplicates.
In a following window of the duplicate file searcher you should choose a directory of search of duplicate files. In the program following variants of directories for search are provided: folder, disk, RAR and ZIP archive, iTunes and network disk. In each of these directories you can search for duplicate files. It is necessary to notice that archive RAR and ZIP, iTunes and network disk are rather new tools of search in program Clone Remover. Thanks to such tools duplicate files search becomes even more convenient and effective.
After that the program spends search of duplicates and gives out results. All you need to do is to choose duplicate files and to remove them from the computer.
