Duplicate & Same Files Searcher is a software created to help you search faster for duplicate files (clones) and NTFS hard links to the same file. It searches duplicate file contents regardless of file name (true byte-to-byte comparison is used).

This application allows not only to delete duplicate files or to move them to another location, but to replace duplicates with NTFS hard links as well (unique!). You can save the results to file for further processing, use a search function within the results list, hide groups without the real duplicates, switch to a different language for the GUI, and make Duplicate & Same Files Searcher automatically check for updates online.
