34075 2002-02-02 23:26:00 I am a celebrity picture collector and have over 3 gigs worth of celeb pics. Is there a program out there to sort through them all an tell me if there are any duplicates? Guest (0)
34076 2002-02-02 23:43:00 The only way you can detect duplicates, is if the files are identical. As this means the names would have to be identical too, if you copied them all into one directory, you would remove duplicates.

As files of a different name, even if the file contents are identical have different bit patterns, you wont be able to detect them without visually checking.

DAMN I was trying to get the limited edition... oh well.

www.bigwig.net

or a manual way is to use windows explorer - view details and sort by size.
