Free Up Hard Drive Space with Easy Duplicate File Finder
By Josh | June 26, 2008
I am constantly looking for ways to keep my harddrive clean so that I can always have space for new programs. A lot of times I’ll just randomly download things, and I always forget to delete them. I usually go through and delete a lot of things every few months, but I never check for duplicate files. I noticed that a lot of space on my computer was actually being used by files that had been copied at least once.
Finding these duplicate files and deleting or moving them to another hard drive can save a lot of space. Easy Duplicate File Finder makes it really easy to determine where these files are. I ended up finding many gigs of space that were being taken up by duplicate files. After deleting the duplicates, I had a lot more free space.
Using Easy Duplicate File Finder is easy. All you have to do is add the locations that you want to scan, and it will do a number of tests on each file to determine if it is a duplicate. It may take a while depending on how large your hard drive is, but it is definitely worth it if you are wanting to free up some space.
