Very confusing, like ShotBlocker said in the last comment. On developer's site this application (Duplicate File Remover Pro) is not listed. Instead another application is listed -"Duplicate File Finder" . The link to Nektony just above the comments, takes to "Duplicate File Finder". Can Nektony(developer) explain here what is what please ? Are both applications the same ?

I gave this 4 stars, even though I've never used it. Why? Because I think it's probably pretty good and I don't know how to post a comment (with no rating) and I don't want to inadvertently give an unfair zero star review. MacUpdate doesn't seem to allow for comments any more. (Or am I missing something, folks?) Now, DEAR NEKTONY: You now market "Duplicate File Remover Pro" (which was "Duplicates Expert") and "Duplicate File Finder Remover" (as you now call it on MacUpdate, but which was, and STILL IS on your website, "Duplicate File Finder"). This is UTTERLY CONFUSING. The two (or is it FOUR?) products seem very similar and are similarly priced. Could you PLEASE let your POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS know the difference between the two? I use, and recommend, "Duplicate File Finder Pro." I think it's a good product. I imagine that "Duplicate File Remover Pro" is too. But putting out two similar products with similar names (which change constantly) is CREATING A MESS for you. Tell us -- SELL US -- on the virtues of BOTH PRODUCTS, or, perhaps better yet, CONSOLIDATE them into ONE so they're not competing with each other, and maybe even driving customers to some other products. Please -- get your act together, and give your company a chance to make some well-earned money. -SB

I tested several apps in the past. Recently I had to organize my files/backups/etc to avoid duplicated data. I downloaded first free version - Duplicate File Finder and it worked really well. UI seems nice and user friendly. Actually probably it would be enough but I wanted to test some extra options in Pro version so I bought it. First difference - darker theme. In the beginning it look more ugly comparing to Duplicate File Finder which uses white clean theme but later I liked it - more user friendly for "night work". As I read some first comment to see what other thinks I see this dark mode can be a problem for some people so be aware. Perhaps choosing "theme" would be a great option if possible. Extra options removing whole dir, merging useful but so far used few times. However I still have a lot of work to do with organizing, download backups from cloud and remove duplicates etc. But generally the easy of use is great and I really liked to work using this software comparing to few others.

I liked the program but I had to give it up and use Singlemizer (which lacks one of the simple, useful features of this program... being able to check ANY of the duplicate files found instead of the 2nd+ files listed). The two problems with this program are : 1) its snazzy grey-text on a slightly-greyer background, is certainly snazzy but I find it nearly impossible to read the program output, Black text on a white background has worked for centuries... some of us users aren't quite THAT old but our eyesight is definitely over 18. 2) The program doesn't let you select by mouse cursor the filename of any of the duplicates it finds. That would be quite useful when using "find" for locating versions or derivatives of a file which aren't themeselves duplicated. Sorry, I'd otherwise have bought the licence.
