Duplicate Photos Fixer

How to Preview Photos And Delete The Right Files

Isn’t it a headache to sift through hundreds of pictures, trying to clear the clutter by removing unnecessary duplicate and blurred pictures?

Ideally, duplicate photos should be removed as soon as you get the perfect shot, but it’s not that easy. When you are in the moment and clicking the photos, you only focus(pun intended) on getting the best shot.

In the quest to capture a moment perfectly, you create an album with many duplicate and similar pictures. Saving them is the only option for the time being,, as it will take a lot of time and effort to go through each of them, and who wants that?

Well, what if I were to tell you how to help you preview, compare, and delete duplicate photos from your gallery in just a few clicks? In this blog, let’s explore how you can preview photos and delete the right files instantly! Shall we begin?

How To Preview Multiple Images Simultaneously For Comparison

Now that you have decided to delete unwanted photos from your gallery, you must find a way to make the process simpler. The simplest way, of course,  is to open multiple images together and then compare them. But that seems impossible, considering an image viewer only allows you to preview one image at a time.

Sure, you can run the images slide by slide, and they will seem similar to each other, but the tiniest of the details require proper comparison. The results may not seem satisfactory when you go through images one at a time and compare multiple side-by-side. So how to preview multiple images together?

One way that comes to mind is by installing multiple photo viewers and then manually opening multiple images together. This may work if you have a multi-screen setup. Most of us are regular laptop users, so this might not be the best solution.

Another thing you can do is change the folder view to extra-large icons. Windows allows you to change the default view of your gallery and folders. All you have to do is follow the instructions.

  • Open Windows explorer and navigate to the folder where photos are saved.
  • On the top menu bar, click on View and choose Extra Large Icons

  • This way, you will get a peek at all the listed images in your folder. You can give these icons a closer look and compare them.

But for some those extra-large icons are a bit small to compare the images. The technique can work with simple portrait pictures as you can take a look at the duplicate faces and remove them. However, I am afraid if you have detailed pictures to sort, this might not work!

Then what to do? Well, there’s another way that can help you preview photos and delete duplicate pictures from your PC but that requires you to go a step further and install Duplicate Photos Fixer Pro. What is that? Check the next section to learn more about it!
