    How do I remove a duplicate user file


    I reinstalled windows 11, from the download ISO, earlier this week. I have now noticed that there are two user files, duplicates, and two windows folders. How do I remove one of each of these?They do not show as separate users in settings.

    How to remove duplicate files in Windows 10.

    Thank you for the suggestion. I need to see a list of duplicate files and select those I want to eliminate. Does the program you suggested compare file content or do they simply point out duplicate
