Mechanism to Identify Duplicate Audio Files in Windows OS

Duplicate Audio Files- a Major PC Problem

Duplicate audio files can be a problem, especially when you’re not subscribed to an Internet based cloud storage or you don’t use an external hard drive. We tend to download new songs and music files and eventually end up with multiple identical copies of the audio files. This causes utter disorganization in PC.

Same Content; Different File Names & Paths

These multiple versions of audio files are of no use. The file names may vary, however, they have the same content. You may find them in different directories of your hard drive. The question arises how can you sort these files out. Unfortunately, this cleaning can not be done using a Windows built-in tool. In fact there is no such official tool available. You are left with the option to use your investigative skills to find dupes and eliminate them without the risk of losing your real files!

Duplicate Audio Files Affect your PC Experience

As duplicate files continue to accumulate large space of your hard disk, your computer starts running slower than before. Other applications and games also freeze often while your system occasionally crashes and shows low disk space alert.

How to Tackle this Problem of Audio dupes?

To tackle the problem of increasing number of duplicate audios, download Clone Files Checker. Now all you’ve to do is add up new folders/ drives and then start the scan process. After completing the scan, specify whether you want to automatically take action against all duplicates or review each of them individually.
