DupScout Pro Editor's Review

Dupscout Pro is a handy utility you can use for eliminating duplicate files from your directories. Dupscout Pro has a lot of options to help you find duplicates and an easy to use interface.

The application is very easy to use due to its nice design and skinnable interface. You can use it to quickly detect duplicate files within a directory and move, delete or replace duplicate files with links.

Once you've selected a directory (folder) to seek for duplicates in, you can choose to exclude directories from the scan, reducing scan time. Duplicate files can be detected by several criteria: signature type (MD5 checksum, SHA1, SHA256), file scanning mode(sequential, parallel) or you can set the maximum dup file sets.

Duplicate search jobs can be saved as profiles in order to ease the scanning process.

Drawbacks / flaws:

In conclusion: Finding and deleting duplicate files can save you a lot of hard disk space. Definitely worth a try.
