Duplicate File Cleaner For Mac

Designed with speed in mind, Duplicate File Cleaner is a forthright macOS utility that enables you to quickly and effortlessly scan, find, manage, and get rid of duplicate files on your Mac’s hard-drive.

As with most applications of this sort, in order to get started using Duplicate File Cleaner, you must simply drag and drop the folder that needs to be scanned from the Finder onto the utility’s main window.

Once this is done, Duplicate File Cleaner will automatically start the scanning process and display the preliminary results such as the number of scanned files, the number of duplicates found and their total size in no time.

From here onwards, you will be transferred to another menu window where all the magic happens by clicking the “Display Result” button. On the right side of the main window, you will find a panel that displays all the found dupes, a file path menu on the lower right side, while on the upper right side, a preview panel.

Within this window, you can accurately manage all the duplicate files by arranging them by size, type, name, count, path, or ascending and descending. You are also given the options to select all files with a single click, keep all files, or to keep only the oldest or newest.

Once you have decided which files you need taken care of, simply click the “Clean Selected Files” option and Duplicate File Cleaner will instantly delete the files in question. Of course, from the Preferences menu, you can setup the application to either move duplicate files to Trash, or to permanently remove them.

In terms of customizability, Duplicate File Cleaner can be programmed to scan files with sizes  under indicated values or to ignore scanning files with certain extensions.

Duplicate File Cleaner proved itself to be a fast and user-friendly macOS utility that streamlines the whole process of cleaning your Mac’s hard-drive of duplicate files and makes it seem like a walk in the park.
