Duplicate Finder

Find exact duplicate files with size grouping, hashing, and byte-for-byte checks.

FileLever's current duplicate finder behavior is grounded in exact matches rather than fuzzy inference. It groups by size, hashes candidates, and confirms matches byte-for-byte before deletion policy logic matters.

Current behavior

  • Size grouping before hashing
  • SHA256 default hashing
  • Optional MD5 in the CLI
  • Byte-for-byte confirmation
  • Duplicate report output
  • Optional deletion only with explicit policy

Availability note

This workflow exists today in the FileLever source toolchain. Website copy should present it honestly according to the release state of the desktop UI and CLI packaging when binaries ship.
