Singlemizer - we are fighting with duplicates on our drives
Makradar Technologies / / December 19, 2019
With the advent of our computer disks the size of several terabytes, we admit it, we all relaxed a bit. Now you can store years of junk, not caring about the free space in HDD. It's time to shake things up and to hold a general cleaning using Singlemizer.
Singlemizer interface as simple as possible and made as a sequence of actions required of the user. The first thing to point to a directory that will be cleaning. Then you choose the rules on which the files will be selected and presented for comparison. It is worth to pay attention to the following options: file name, directory name, file size limitation and a unified identifier types UTIs (Uniform Type Identifiers) By default, the seven rules, but no one bothers to make a few improvements to its result.
Miracles do not happen, and the duration of search of duplicates now depends on hard disk mechanics, unless of course you are not the owner of something more modern and expensive vema. In my case, the user's folders occupy 452 GB has been treated for 33 minutes, which, in my opinion, quite acceptable. Singlemizer compares the data byte, it uses MD5 and SHA-1 algorithms accelerate several times as a routine operation.
Plus is the fact that the results are displayed in real time, so you can evaluate how accurately formed request to search for duplicates and without wasting time to make necessary adjustments.
A summary of the work performed Singlemizer as a table with the division of the content by color and grouping of identical objects. There is here and "foolproof", one of the duplicates are marked as master file and is locked, you can change it if necessary.
Singlemizer not followed the path of many utilities, the following expression "press the button you get the result." As in the good old utilities, it still requires the user to certain movements, but their number is modest and does not become a stimulus for even the most impatient Mac owners.
