DESCRIPTION
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.

FLASH1296  There are MUCH better choices to find duplicate files on your drives.

The best include "TidyUp!" and "Spring Cleaning 10".

My personal choice is "FileBuddy9" the only application that can search through invisible files and system files.

Dupe Guru is virtually worthless.

The current version took over an HOUR, as opposed to several minutes with the others listed above.

To be avoided.

KEVIN TRAYWICK  In addition to often crashing on startup, the demo version doesn't warn you that you can only mark 10 dupes to delete. I wasted half an hour marking files only to have it tell me I was screwed when I went to trash the marked files. That's frustrating!
