About

dlFindDuplicates finds duplicate files in selected directories, based on filelength and (partial) MD5 hashes.
Duplicate files then can be selected via a flexible, lua-based scripting interface. This allows to select on the basis of time, location, size or combinations thereof.

The selected files then can be :

  • Deleted
  • Converted to a hardlink (as well under Linux as under Windows(*) )
  • Moved to a map, in case you don't trust delete at once
(*) Windows 7 and higher.

dlFindDuplicates uses a three step approach to decide as fast as possible on duplication :

  • Filesize
  • Partial MD5 over the first MB
  • Full MD5

Features

  • Fast, using multithreading.
  • Hardlink aware.
  • Flexible lua interface for duplicate selection.
