Same bytes.
Extra copies.
Add one or more folders. ExactDupe first narrows candidates by file size, then hashes the full candidate files locally and groups only byte-for-byte matches. See how much space the extra copies represent before you clean anything up.
Compare one folder or several backups
Add folders repeatedly to compare copies stored in different places. Files stay on your device.
Browser limitation: ExactDupe can only read files you explicitly choose. It cannot silently scan a drive.
Exact duplicate groups
The KEEP label is only a suggestion for organizing the report. ExactDupe never deletes a file.
Exact matching without trusting file names
Group by size
Files with unique byte sizes cannot be exact duplicates, so they are skipped.
Hash candidates
Only same-size candidates receive a full SHA-256 hash, streamed in chunks.
Match exact bytes
Same size and same full hash are grouped as exact duplicate copies.
Review, then act
Export the report and decide what to keep. Nothing is deleted automatically.
