DuplicateDestroyer removes duplicate files from a directory tree

• Put the executable into the top folder of the tree you want to check
• Start the application. (Either by double click or from the command line: DuplicateDestroyer.exe)
• You will be asked which files to keep or delete from a set of exact duplicates
• Alternatively, you might specify -o or -n to auto-schedule the oldest or newest files
• The files are deleted by the program

DuplicateDestroyer checks for duplicates by reading every file in the tree and calculating an MD5 hash on it.

You should never run data removers without making an appropriate backup first.

DuplicateDestroyer does not put your files into the Recycle Bin. The files are permanently deleted on impact.
