dupeGuru overview

dupeGuru is a tool to find duplicate files on your computer. It can scan either filenames or contents. The filename scan features a fuzzy matching algorithm that can find duplicate filenames even when they are not exactly the same.

  • dupeGuru is efficient. Find your duplicate files in minutes, thanks to its quick fuzzy matching algorithm. dupeGuru not only finds filenames that are the same, but it also finds similar filenames.
  • dupeGuru is customizable. You can tweak its matching engine to find exactly the kind of duplicates you want to find. The Preference page of the help file lists all the scanning engine settings you can change.
  • dupeGuru is safe. Its engine has been especially designed with safety in mind. Its reference directory system as well as its grouping system prevent you from deleting files you didn't mean to delete.
  • Do whatever you want with your duplicates. Not only can you delete duplicates files dupeGuru finds, but you can also move or copy them elsewhere. You can also easily weed the bad duplicates out, thanks to the Power Marker.

What’s new in version 4.3.1

This release fixes #1015 which can result in non-duplicate files being marked as duplicate when using the standard content mode scan.

Features:
  • Update Italian translations
Bug Fixes:
  • Fix issue where cache db exceptions could prevent files being hashed (#1015)
  • Add extra guard for non-zero length files without digests to prevent false duplicates
Other Notes:
  • Highly recommended for anyone using version 4.2.0 or later to update to this version, as the issue has existed since that version.
  • Release files hosted here are signed with GPG (sig)

Not sure why, but after all these years, DupeGuru is still to most efficient when it comes to finding duplicate images. The more dissimilar the images are (size, colour, temperature, light etc.) the more this becomes true. Unfortunately, it's rather slow and can't handle larger numbers of images.

Looks like this great tool have been neglected for a while... :-( v4.0.3 that's linked here is ok (DL from the old dev) but I had a hard time opening the one from the new dev (which appears to be identical, in the end...) At the present time, there's a v4.0.4 but only for Windows and Linux...
