Recommend me a best duplicate photo cleaner for PC Windows 10
Hello everyone, can anyone recommend a good duplicate photo cleaner for PC? My photo library is getting bigger and bigger, and there are many duplicate pictures in it. It's too much effort to delete ...

It only took 10 minutes to help me find thousands of duplicate photos on my Windows 11 PC.
Windows has no built-in feature that can reliably decide that two merely similar photos are duplicates, so I would not automate deletion under that constraint. For exact copies, use File Explorer's Details view to sort a backed-up photo folder by Size and Date modified, then compare suspected pairs before removing anything. This is slower, but it avoids an unsupported tool deleting edited, cropped, or burst photos that look alike.
