Duplicate & Same Files Searcher (Duplicate Searcher) is an application for searching duplicate files (clones) and NTFS hard links to the same file. It searches duplicate file contents regardless of file name (true byte-to-byte comparison is used).
This application allows to delete duplicate files or to move them to another location, but to replace duplicates with NTFS hard links as well (unique!).
Features:
Fast search engine (byte-to-byte comparison and hard link detection algorithm are used)
Detailed visualisation of duplicate files, NTFS hard links and junction points (unique!).
Shows fragmentation of files (unique!).
Shows compressed NTFS files in color.
Manual and filtered selection files to delete, move or replace with NTFS hard links.
Allows to move and delete files.
Allows to replace files with NTFS hard links (unique!).
Allows to compress files on NTFS volumes.
Allows selecting disks and folders to scan.
+ More new features will come soon in next versions!
Free! ( Donations to support a further development are welcome! ;) )
Fixed small resizing problem in "Select folders to scan" dialog.

Pros: None
Cons: None
Other Thoughts: Love this program, freed a lot of space without deleting any files. This one can replace same files with hardlinks, only one that does that.
