       <\/p>\n

      Using a Duplicate Cleaner Software App<\/b><\/h2>\n

      Even though these above-mentioned methods are quite effective, they can still miss out and leave several duplicate image files on your computer. This happens especially in the case of files that are stored in places other than directories within the default folders.<\/span><\/p>\n

      2. By using the list box at the left-hand side, add any folders that you wish to scan.<\/span><\/li>\n
      3. Determine search options. You can either select a full scan or go for a custom scan.<\/span><\/li>\n
      4. Click <\/span>Start Search<\/b> to launch the scan.<\/span><\/li>\n
      5. Once the scan is over, click either <\/span>Quick-Fix<\/b> to perform a universal action on all the duplicate pictures detected or choose <\/span>Review and Fix<\/b> to manually choose files and take action on each of them.<\/span><\/li>\n
      6. If you are using Clone Files Checker<\/b>, you do not have to worry about accidentally losing valuable files. This software application has an additional Backup & Restore Feature<\/b> which lets you easily restore accidentally deleted files.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
