Clone Terminator last appeared on Giveawayoftheday.com on June 28, 2010 with version 3.0.

Now at version 3.5 it has seen some changes.

1. Windows Vista/7 support.

2. Improved interface (new editor of equal file groups, built-in multi-format preview system, etc)

3. Improved speed and stability (now Clone Terminator is one of the fastest duplicate finder program on the market).
4. Built-in new warning system (try to prevent a user deleting system/program files)

Thank you for your criticism and have a nice day!

Sorry, Bubby - - - Clone Terminator last appeared on June 28, 2010 with Version 3.0. You are correct about the new features.

I have used this program since Version 2.5 and I have to say there is no better or faster duplicate finder that I have found anywhere. It shows the results side by side so you can decide which of the duplicates to keep and there is no way (besides blindness or incompetence) to delete the wrong file. If you do, it will be found in the recycle bin so you really have to go out of your way to lose a file.

The program finds duplicates by comparing the file data. The name is irrelevant so you will find the results displaying the two filenames regardless of what they are. You choose which to keep. If you are a "Doubting Thomas" you can always compare the two results using Windows File Compare but you'll never find a mistake (mismatch), the program is awesome!

Best program I've ever used to find duplicates and it has saved me a lot of space removing extra photos and music files. I love it!

Thank you GAOTD and Enplase Research!

Fast, clean, simple, and it runs as advertised. I selected a sub-folder with 5892 files of 4.3 meg each. It found two pairs in 40 seconds. It looks like a keeper for me.

@7 (Lou2) The "uninstall" file is in the application's folder (unins000.exe) and it IS registered even if no shortcut was created.

Not really impressed with today's offering. I felt like it was lacking some pretty basic options, most notably the ability to include/exclude subdirectories. I didn't really notice any difference in speed from other programs of the same type, and the results seem unnecessarily complicated. They're listed in groups, but rather than being able to go through and select numerous files in numerous pairs you have to go through one pair at a time. I also didn't see a way to select, say, files from a specific directory for deletion. At $29, I have to say that there are a number of free programs out there that have many more options. I've been very happy with DigitalVolcano's Duplicate Cleaner. The one selling point on this program seems to be the built-in warning system. If you're generally careful with cleaning out files, that probably isn't enough to warrant the $29, though.
