I found anti-twin to be very good.

Not only match the same but also similar photos that are binary different but very similar.
You can set reference folders and it will lit dupes - then you can select and decide what to do; delete, move etc.

Fuzzy matching thats what I was thinking.

Never had an issue with it, that's odd.

There's this, although a recommendation from BT may not be worth anything...

CCleaner has a duplicate file finder as part of its wider offering.

I'm assuming your files are backed up locally and not somewhere cloudy?

Duplicate photo app

So you back up your photos and then back them up again. And again.

Another frivolous lockdown task but I've put it off for long enough. I have found you can use/buy an App that will locate the duplication photos and remove them. Has anyone done this, and what were your findings?

Currenty trying out Duplicate Cleaner from the Microsoft Store that is free.

TIA
