How to Quickly Delete Duplicate "Files with the Same Name" in the Same Folder in Windows 11

Over the years, I have repeatedly stored files in the same folder, and now I have accumulated a large number of duplicate files with identical names and paths. I need an efficient method to batch delete these duplicates to avoid manual one-by-one operations. Seeking recommendations for built-in system tools, command-line solutions, or reliable third-party software.

    You can use File Explorer or Finder to manually search, but this is impractical for large datasets.
