I was a bit taken aback by 'ol mixture's rebuttal so I loaded up an old image directory that I know has a lot of dupes and semi-dupes (images that have been resized, edited, or saved in a different format). Some of my dupes are deliberate, in that they're copied to more than one folder for reference - yes, I know its wasteful, but I'm not short of disk space. On the Basic setting (as opposed to Strict or Loose) VisiPics looked at 34953 images in 31 minutes and found 11834 'duplicates' - on review, all are visually similar across a range of file formats - either real exact dupes or edits. The results are easy to see as they are compared visually and you can choose which ones to move, ignore or discard. 'Autoselect' could have picked for me Uncompressed filetype a/o Lower resolution a/o Smaller filesize for deletion to the Recycle Bin - careful there! There is no option for creating links.

On the same folder dupeGuru is took more than twice as long to find rather more & more accurately - it seems to be using a different technique for matching images and it verifies results. These are sharp tools - don't cut yourself! Results are more finegrained and you can see the delta better - dupeGuru is more 'tweakable', can use regexes, and can create symlinks or hardlinks as well as copy or move dupes to a new directory.īoth allow you to find similar images across a single or multiple folders and operate on the results visually in a reasonable GUI.
