fountain Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Any suggestions on ways to eliminate duplicate files in storage folders --duplicates of user created files-- on my computer? I have all of Jane's recent updates and I want "clean house" before I put those in so I don't miss an old dl and put that old file in a game by mistake. (My son helped do registry cleaning on my computer a few days ago.) Is there a "find duplicate files" set up that I can confine to ztd files? I have MS Windows 10 and the latest updates. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fountain Posted February 10, 2018 Author Share Posted February 10, 2018 Well that's clever! I never though of making a simple change of adding a special letter. I envisioned having to read all the dates & details for each file. I will do that. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbl89 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 You better use the hint on googling for a tool to find duplicate files. I think CCleaner will come up first, which is also frequently used to do registry cleanings. But there are hundreds of similar tools. Just in case they're in different folders, or a different name after all. ;) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fountain Posted February 12, 2018 Author Share Posted February 12, 2018 I have CCleaner. I check that first. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to modify it look at only ZT folders but I couldn't so I'm looking at 15+ Silverlight from MS, meaning it searches all of the drive. I will try something else.
