    Program For Finding Duplicate Names


    Greetings. I have a very large collection of Movies & TV Series on 31 external HDD's.
    I have been collecting for years and my memory is not what it was.

    Does anyone know of a program, that will index all of those drives and will enable me to search the result for folders/files of the SAME NAME?

    To be more precise: the program needs to show all same name folders/files, without me entering in any name or extension, etc.

    :)

    Finding duplicate files

    Hey hey,

    During the years the backups have just accumulated in random places, essentially, and I would like to clean up. Is there a program that can search for duplicate files? And by that I mean identical files. I tried dupeGuru, but that somehow found ... all files to be identical I guess? Like how a bunch of jpg's with different names, sizes and locations being marked 100% identical, or how a bunch of xls-files with completely different everything also were 100% matches with each other. I don't need any fancy functions, just a list of the files that share the name and filesize and created/last write dates.

    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
    file names?

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