jsBudbrainFindDblsOrRenameIt

Two tools in one: find files that exist more than once and tidy them up, and rename many files at once by your own rules. You see every change before it happens.

Choose your folders, narrow the search by type, name, size or date if you like, and the app shows every file that is there more than once. The newest copy stays, the others are marked — move them to the trash, into a folder of your choice, or delete them. Empty folders are found as well.

Renaming works the same way: add simple rules like "replace", "number" or "date taken", watch the new names appear in the preview, and rename with one click. Moving and renaming can be undone.

• Finds real duplicates by their content, whatever they are called
• Searches all subfolders, finds empty folders too
• You decide what stays — the newest copy is kept by default
• Trash, move, delete or replace by links
• Find any file by name, type, size or date and see where it is
• Rename by rules with a live preview and undo
• Try name patterns on sample names before you rename anything
• Save your searches and use them again with one click
• Pause a long search and carry on later
• Run several searches at once as jobs and keep them for later
• Light and dark design

Available in 47 languages.

As a snap the app works in your home folder. For USB drives and memory cards it shows you once how to allow access, with a command ready to copy.
