Detect Duplicate Images With AntiDupl.net

If you store images on your computer chance is that you eventually encounter duplicate images. This can be because some have been downloaded from multiple locations, in batch where it was not enough time to check the pictures before downloading them or because of copying and moving them around on the computer system.

A manual control of all images is not likely to yield the desired results, especially if the image count is higher than a few hundreds images.

The only option then is to use a software that can detect duplicate images automatically. And AntiDupl.net is that kind of software.

The software is comparable to other applications that can detect duplicate images like Duplicate File Finder, Visipics or Softchronizer.

It works by selecting files or folders that should be processed by the software program. The program uses the contents of the images that have been loaded into its interface to detect the duplicates.

The results will display pairs of duplicate images with information like the images file name, local folder and difference value. Automatic options to delete duplicate images are offered although those are limited to deleting the first or second image of a pair without options to define other parameters like deleting images based on size, file type or screen resolution.

The scan of all images is on the other hand very fast and it is possible to delete images manually in the results window.

AntiDupl.net is a free software program that can detect duplicate images. It supports the graphics formats jpg, gif, tiff, bmp and png. The program supports all major 32-bit and 64-bit Microsoft operating systems and requires the Microsoft .net Framework 2.0.
