Delete All Duplicates Of File

Top   Previous   Next

The Delete All Duplicates of File command is useful when you have a group of duplicates and you know exactly which file you wish to preserve. This command will preserve only the selected file. It is faster than opening a file group, selecting all of the files within the group, and deleting them. This command is a safe command and you will not be able to delete all occurrences of a file using this command.

 

The Delete All Duplicates of File command is only available when you are in Display By Path mode and you have selected a file which has duplicates under it.

 

To use this command, use the following procedure.

1. Run a Duplicate Hunt to generate results.
2. Select a file with duplicates in view by path mode.
3. Run the Delete All Duplicates deletion method.

 

The items will be automatically deleted, and the results will be updated.
