However, there is a catch as well. You may not realize how many dupes are scattered across different partitions, folders and such clones usually grow up with the passage of time. Since there is no duplicate cleaning feature available in Windows Media Player, users end up with too many duplicates sitting in their system and eating up unnecessary storage space. Sometimes 1 file with exactly the same names would be sitting across 2 or multiple locations on the computer, sometimes the user would had accidentally used different names for it.

It would require a herculean effort on part of the user to manually sift through each and every single multimedia file on his / her system. A much easier and quicker approach is to use a duplicate cleaning tool that uses smart algorithms to weed out all the duplicates. Clone Files Checker is one such good example, always up to the task without straining system resources.
