Looking for a duplicate file finder thats got no adware or any other hidden things.
If I had a virtualbox windows I would try em all out to see which one rates the best but I only have windows 10 home 64bit op.

I have just recovered a mates drive of pix and there is so many duplicates to get rid of, so to help sort this out before I go deleting file I'm hoping there is a decent proggy that will cut down the time to complete it.

His puter was was turned off/on so many times by his son that the drive became corrupted and windows was in a continuous reboot cycle. And so I thought to recover his pix I would use ubuntu to search his docs folder, BUT, that was corrupted...
So I used a recovery program for pix,and now the puter has just finished about a 8day search and recover and it has ....loads of duplicates. his son also managed to make a crap load of that before the crash, little terror lol

Thanks for any help.

There are free VM. And I did a tutorial on how to set one up. If you have a OS.

Do You have a product key for windows 7. If you do yes it should work. I had a windows 7 disk and I didn't even have to put in the product key and it worked. I bought a pc with 7 on it and I just never got rid of the disk so I tried it, all it took was time.
