xOzkar Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Dear CCleaner Team, I would like to see the feature for Ccleaner to automatically select duplicate files based on a variety of filters like 1. Files based on longest file folder. 2. Files based on longest name. If there is a feature, it isn't visible to me. I had to manually select duplicate files for like 30 minutes. I think if CCleaner automatically selected duplicate files for you it would save time and effort for people with space management.For example if CCleaner automatically selected 1 duplicate files out of 2 files or 3 duplicate files out of 4 files, I think it would be pretty neat. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators mta Posted September 26, 2015 Moderators Share Posted September 26, 2015 pretty neat, maybe but pretty scary, definitely. duplicate file removal should never be put in the hands of a machine, or automated in any way. unless you can somehow completely trust the process. I would only be comfortable in manually eye-balling all duplicate file results before deciding which one, if any, truly were duplicates. Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last.

xOzkar Posted September 26, 2015 Author Share Posted September 26, 2015 I can agree with you. However I found this feature on Advanced Uninstaller Pro app, its actually good, saved me time and space. Im pretty sure CCleaner can just allow the software to have filters to select duplicate files with the longest folder extension, or longest name. Or any. I cant see why it is dangerous.
