WinDeDup

From BlueSAN Technology:  A fast and simple program to find true duplicate files based on byte by byte comparison of your photo, video, office documents, web pages and any other files. By default, matched duplicate files are available in a html report and in a CSV file. Review the duplicates report and mark the duplicates in the CSV file, and then submit the marked CSV file to the data-mover facility of WinDeDeup for batch mode cleanup. WinDeDup has built in support to protect against mistaken cleanup. You can find duplicates among specific file types and you can scope based on file sizes and file age. Added bonus is handling of unused and old files in the disk. The free version of WinDeDup finds duplicate files in up to 5 top level folders/drives. To manage duplicate files in more than 5 top level folders/drives, use WinDeDup-Home or WinDeDup-Pro instead.
