Having been so meticulous about taking back ups, I’ve perhaps not as been as careful about where I stored them, so I now have a loads of duplicate files in various places. I;ve tried various tools fdupes, czawka etc. , but none seems to do what I want… I need a tool that I can tell which folder (and subfolders) is the source of truth, and to look for anything else, anywhere else that’s a duplicate, and give me an option to move or delete. Seems simple enough, but I have found nothing that allows me to do that… Does anyone know of anything ?

    Hi @xewgranodius - I’m not actually worried about which came first, the key thing for me is which one is located in the directory (source) of truth. If it’s not in there then it’s fair game and can be moved/deleted…
