serenissimaHey all you savvy computer users out there -- is there a utility that will tell me which of my files are exact copies of each other?
When I migrated from my old desktop to my new laptop, I was more concerned with getting all my stuff copied over than with where it all went, and I'm sure I have duplicates, maybe triplicates of a lot of files; I'm just not sure where I put them. I'm not looking forward to combing through 'My Documents' and the D:\ drive by hand.
The laptop runs Vista.
