Free duplicate file finder for Vista?

John,

Thanks for fast reply. Too pricey for this poor old guy I'm afraid. ($39.95) Let me add more to the problem. The old computer was backed up with Carbonite. When I restored to new computer & OS you would not believe the mess it caused in Windows Mail because I had 3 email identities that I used in Outlook Express. 1 for family mail, 1 for personal friends and one for using on sites like this. Everything got lumped together. And shortly afterward the new HP crashed and had to completely reinstall Vista. Now I have Carbonite backups of backups to untangle. Some people in my Contacts list are listed 6-8 times or more. I should have bought XP on new computer (like the old) and the restore would have been effortless.

I said all that to say that I have duplicate files in other programs too. If I absolutely have to purchase software I would like it to do more than Windows Mail & I can't see me spending $39

I believe that application's 30-day is not feature-limited, meaning you can use it freely for 30 days, plenty of time to untangle the mess weaved by the transition.

For standard files (not email/contacts), Easy Duplicate File Finder requires a little more thought than some one-click paid applications, but it is free of charge and fully capable.

They are prompted to "register" with your name and email, with no mention of charge. Only after you provide this information do you find there is a $40 charge to get a full feature set. This software is NOT free!
