So, why is this software such a precious?
Let’s just assume that you have hundreds or even thousands of pictures on you computer. A part of this pictures you’re sending to your friends over the internet and you duplicate and resize this pictures in order to sent them. After a while your computer will be full of duplicate pictures (as it was my PC).

Or, maybe you are a big music listener. You will have tons of mp3s, a part of them in two or more places on your computer, as duplicates. To delete manual all this junk is a big pain. The only solution is to use a tool and DupeTrasher is it’s doing a great job cleaning your HDD for duplicates.

What is DupeTrasher actually doing?
DupeTrasher is searching on your HDD for duplicates. Once the search process is done you can let DupeTrasher to remove automatically the duplicated files/directories/archives or you can select them manually.

I had chosen the automatic method and the results were impressive – almost 9 GB of duplicates were founded and removed from my HDD, most of them pictures but a few movies and dozens of mp3s too. Of course you can use a free tool to do this but I have found very hard or, to be sincerely, impossible, to find a good free software to remove safely the duplicate files, and anyway what I found didn’t removed the directories which contained that files too.

What can I say more? I am really impressed about the performances of this small piece of software. For all of you interested in removing the duplicates from your computer I recommend that you check this duplicate file finder – DupeTrasher.

A good solution to detect and delete the duplicate files from a pc is to install a free and small software, named Easycleaner. I am using it for a while, successfully. The most powerful function you can get using Easycleaner is cleaning the registry. Other things you can do with: delete unnecessarily files and internet cookie files, manage programs starting at startup, add/remove programs (clean install and uninstall!), clear invalid shortcuts and history. Also, Easycleaner give you interesting informations about disk usage. Personally I used it mostly to check for duplicates files.

To get it, go to http://personal.inet.fi/business/toniarts/ecleane.htm and then download files/EClea2_0.zip
You don’t need to install anything, just double-click on exe file and you have open the program. Go to Options / Duplicate files and be sure you have checked, in require section, all four boxes.

My advice:
Be aware to use this software because if you go wrong is possible to lose important files. Be careful which files are you deleting!
