Why was CloneSpy written? |
Do you often download files from the Internet? Is
your hard drive crowded with these files? Have you ever asked
yourself which files you have downloaded more than once? Perhaps you
already burned files to a CD and retrieved them again? Do you want
to find these files and eliminate the duplicates? Maybe you want to
find duplicate files without checking your entire backup CDs every
time? Then CloneSpy is the right tool for you!

What can CloneSpy do? |
CloneSpy can help you free up hard drive space by
detecting and removing duplicate files. Duplicate files can have
exactly the same contents regardless of their name, date, time and
location. Also, CloneSpy is able to find files that are not exactly
identical, but have the same filename. Perhaps you have different
versions of a file and you want to find all of them and remove the
older versions. CloneSpy can also find zero length files. These are
files that have no content.
With CloneSpy you can process
files which
- are duplicates
- have the same file name
- are duplicates and have the same file name
- are zero bytes long
CloneSpy offers you a complete
mechanism to determine which duplicate or same-name files should be
deleted. It is also possible to leave this decision up to the user.
With CloneSpy you can build checksum files from files on CDs (or
even on hard drives, etc.) and use them to check if you have these
files already on your system. The checksum files will prevent you
from playing DJ every time you search for duplicates.
