Publisher's Description
From Rafal Fraczek:
Duplicate Files Searcher (DFS) is an application for finding and deleting duplicated files on your computer It can also be used to calculate MD5 and SHA hashes. It is a platform-indpendent software and runs under Windows, Linux/Unix and MacOS. There are English, German and Polish language versions. Since DFS is entirely written in Java, it requires Java Runtime Environment Standard Edition (JRE SE) installed on your computer. The application gives a user some extra features such as:manual files selection which gives a user the full control over files to be deleted, byte for byte files comparison (it ensures 100% accuracy), files preview, new user interface including results display, improved (faster) searching engine, several files comparison methods, Look&Feel adjustment and new report files format.

"If you use it be carefull"
Version: Duplicate Files Searcher 2.2
Pros
It is like giving an enema gets all of the stuff out.
Cons
You can not trust this thing without constant supervision
Summary
I am glad that I got rid of it.
-
"Fast download. Pretty simple to use."
Version: Duplicate Files Searcher 2.2
Pros
Works pretty fast. Seems to be pretty efficient.
Cons
Not as intuitive a s would have liked.
Summary
The download was quick and easy. It doesn't make sense to have two different versions at the same time. Once I figured out how to select directiories for scanning, it worked quite well

"Impressive power and simplicity.Not too much guidance."
Version: Duplicate Files Searcher 2.2
Pros
Powerful program. does what it says.
Cons
At times a bit too powerful for my my machine, and I spent a fair amount of time waiting, not knowing whether it was progressing. Also leaves the user a bit naked in terms of deciding how to maximize value, minimize risk.
-
"Do not need."
Version: Duplicate Files Searcher 2.2
Pros
Very efficient software.
Cons
I deleted the downloaded application and used it once only: I was scared to delete two files with same title and different text. Also I have enough memory to keep duplicates.
-
"Confusing and buggy, but IT WORKS!!!"
Version: Duplicate Files Searcher 2.2
Pros
IT WORKS!!!
Cons
It's really hard to get ti to work
Summary
Read the notes at the bottom of the download page. Without others' BTDT experience, I would never have figured this out. But once figured out, wow!

"did not remove duplicate songs"
Version: Duplicate Files Searcher 2.2
Pros
removed many photo duplicates
Cons
did not remove song duplicates
Summary
it's good if you don't need to delete songs
-
"Fast functionality, confusing UI"
Version: Duplicate Files Searcher 2.2
Pros
quickly identifies duplicates and provides a means to select them all while leaving one copy to keep.
Cons
UI needs help. Although I could select directories, I was never sure if I picked the correct one. This should be immediately obvious to the user. Also, I never did get the filter to work correctly.
Summary
Clearly document each feature and this would be a 5-star product. Get someone else to document the app. What may be obvious to the developer may be confusing to the consumer.
