If it is in fact a manual process where I have to click on each file I want to delete, please someone tell me quickly and I'll abort the process now and only chalk up 5 or so hours of wasted time. I shudder to even finish that sentence.Ĭan anyone tell me how the removal of duplicates works? Is there an automatic option with CCleaner? I have searched for that information but found no answer which is why I'm back here pestering you all. If it is going to be a manual task, evaluating every pair of duplicates and physically selecting which to keep and which to delete. What has me trembling with trepidation is how those duplicates will be assessed as to which to keep and which to delete at the end of this search function, when I find myself staring at a list of 50,000 or more duplicate files.

Suggestions on how to get around the problem will be welcomed.At this point I see that the very long list of duplicates already found are listed in pairs or groups of 3 or 4 duplicates in some cases and the list goes on forever, in the thousands already and still in the backups folder. The deletion problem does not seem to be tied to where individual files are located in some higher level directories or the type of file being deleted. As I've sorted the files by size, all the files in any deletion group are roughly the same size it is not that I'm accidentally including a large file into the group. When seeking to delete some groups of files, "Easy Duplicate Finder" does tax the processor to the point where it is consuming half of processor resources, but whether or not the deletion fails does not seem to be related to processor load or required processing time. Most all of the reasons listed for why a file or files can't be deleted don't make sense inasmuch as I can delete files one by one. Going back and "trying again" yields the same result even after a substantial wait, yet I can immediately delete each file manually one by one.

On the Winxp 32 bit machine, when commanding the deletion of a group of selected files, the machine will return the message that some of those files have not been deleted. The above, "delete all in given directory," feature does not seem to be present on the WinXP 32 bit machine installation. Using another tool, I was able to quickly delete the resulting empty directories. That feature enabled me to do that very quickly.
In most cases, I'm pretty sure where the redundant files are stored, and I want to clean out those directories, but I don't want to delete anything that is not replicated elsewhere.

On the Win7 64 bit machine, I particularly like the feature that allows me to delete all the duplicates within a given directory when a duplicate has been found in that directory. The last paragraph in the post describes a problem to which I am seeking.
I've used "Easy Duplicate Finder" on 64 bit Win7 and 32 bit WinXP machines.
