The main window of Duplicate Photos Fixer Pro is divided into seven major sections and subsections. They are explained below:
Note : Using the Mac version of Duplicate Photos Fixer Pro, you can Add photos stored in the Photo Library also.
Using this option without navigating to the folder or photo location, you can drag and drop images you wish to scan for duplicates.
This option allows users to navigate the Files Explorer and select pictures for comparison.
This option enables the users to choose an entire folder with the pictures saved to scan for duplicates.
Duplicate Photos Fixer offers two comparison methods to detect duplicates and similar matching images. You can use them to decide the action to be taken.
This option helps detect and remove duplicate copies of images.
Note : Since this method focuses on detecting images that are 100% alike or are an exact copy, the scan results will vary when you choose Similar Match.
This option scans and identifies images with similarities like geographical location, time interval, etc.
Note: You can customize the scanning criteria using the slider given under each sub-section.
The Matching Level is the first setting, probably the most important one. This option helps determine the degree of similarity between two images. Using the slider, you can adjust the matching level.
As the Slider is positioned towards the extreme left, the difference in the images can be observed with the Butterfly on top of the flower in the first image and the same butterfly near the flower in the second image.
To understand the same take a look at the screenshot given below. Notice that the butterfly is nearer to the flower, resulting in near-identical images being grouped for deletion.
To understand the same take a look at the screenshot given below. Notice that when the slider is High, the two images below are almost identical.
The second setting is the Bitmap Size, which helps manage the search result’s accuracy by adjusting the slider between performance and quality.
Once you change it, the search results will depend on the selection of Bitmap settings. The default setting of the Bitmap size is 64 Pixels, as shown below.
Tip : For quick and near-accurate results, the user must move the slider towards extreme left i.e., Performance.
For accurate results, move the slider to the right towards Quality.
The third setting is Time Interval, which helps select the time interval between the two photos which are likely to be near identical. The default setting of the time gap between two images is 30 seconds.
The maximum time difference considered between the two images is 24 hours. Sliding the pointer towards the left instructs Duplicate Photos Fixer Pro to select and group more images that are similar to each other.
The minimum time difference considered between two images is 1 sec. This setting is useful when the user has taken pictures in quick succession.
As the name suggests, it checks the embedded coordinates in the photos. The default setting is set at five meters.
The minimum setting is one meter, and when the pointer is positioned at ‘Less,’ the software groups only those photos as similar where the distance between two images is one meter.
The maximum setting is 100 meters which would be considered while scanning the photos added by the user.
To detect Duplicate images from flipped and rotated pictures, check these options.
The setting option is provided at the top right corner of the screen. It is further divided into five subsections.
General:
This option allows choosing the alert settings confirmation message when deleting, Auto Mark option, launch at startup, and more.
File Formats:
Decide which image file extension should be scanned for duplicates and set the minimum file size to be scanned from this section.
The default value is set at 50 KB and can be decreased to a minimum of 10 KB resulting in all the images fewer than 10 KB will not be included in the scan.
Excluded Folders
If there are any folders that you don’t wish to scan can add them to this list.
Scan Criteria:
This option allows choosing different scan criteria like time interval and GPS. Moreover, you can decide whether to include rotated or flipped images to be scanned for duplicates.
Move Duplicates
Decide whether you want to send deleted duplicates to Recycle Bin or a user-defined location.
Using this option, you can add folders to skip from scanning.
To do so, click Settings > click Exclude Folder > Add.
This will open a new window. Select the folder that you wish to exclude.
Once added, you will see it listed under this section.
Reset Settings:
As the name infers, this button at the bottom left corner of the Settings window will return all the settings to their default state.
Scan For Duplicates:

The scanning process is initiated as soon as you click the Scan for the Duplicate button.
Once done, you will get a screen with the scan results. This screen is further divided into various sections and offers various features.
The 10 most important features on this screen have been explained below:
These are the most important features of Duplicate Photos Fixer Pro. Using either of these options, you can automatically mark duplicates or unmark the selected ones. The auto-mark feature selects duplicate images based on the rules set in Selection Assistant.
When you click Auto Mark, you will get a pop-up message informing you about the customization of rules set in Selection Assistant.
If you are ok with the rules, click the Continue button. However, if you want to set the rules click Open Selection Assistant.

Note : Anytime you want to reset the rules, you can click the Reset Selection Priority button.
Duplicate Photos Fixer Pro allows users to switch between Image View and Detailed View.
Image view helps users to view a small thumbnail of the image for comparison, whereas the Detailed View displays the filename and the file path of the images compared.

Detailed View
This bar informs users about the total number of duplicate photos in a group.
This section displays a small thumbnail of the image on the right pane.
The next section describes the metadata information of the image that consists of File Name, File Size, File Created, File Modified, Folder Name, Image Size, Image DPI, Bit Depth and more.
This section provides the total number of groups and the number of duplicates. Furthermore, it tells the file size of the marked duplicates.
The button is similar to the Clear Cache button and wipes the scan results as you are redirected to the home screen.
Moving the slider from left to right helps detect similar or duplicate images.
Clicking Delete Marked as the name infers the selected duplicate, and similar images are deleted.
To use the Duplicate Fixer pro, follow the steps explained below:
Step 1: Launch Duplicate Photos Fixer Pro

Step 3: Choose the comparison mode between the Exact and Similar matches.
Step 4: Set the Matching Level to detect Similar photos.
Step 5: Thereafter, click the Scan for Duplicates button
Step 6: Wait for the process to finish.
Note : Depending on the number of photos, the process will take time as the application will first load the photos and then compare them and display the duplicates in the form of a table to be deleted as per the user’s discretion.
Step 7: Once this is done, you will see a window with scan results. You can select detected duplicates using the Selection Assistant or Auto Mark feature.
Note : If you click Delete Marked without selecting duplicates to be cleaned, you will be prompted to select at least one. For assistance, you even get the Show Quick Guide option.

My Duplicate Photos Fixer Pro launches every time I turn on the computer. How to I set it to launch only when I want to use it?
Hello
To prevent Duplicate Photos Fixer Pro from launching at startup follow these steps:
1. Launch Duplicate Photos Fixer Pro.
2. Click Settings option.
3. In the left pane click General and uncheck the box next to Launch at system startup
4. Close the program
Now the duplicate image cleaner will not run at startup
I have 2 folders with photos. Folder A is a priority folder, I want to keep photos in Folder A. Folder B has some of the photos in Folder A, but it may not have all of them and it definitely has more photos than in Folder A. I want to identify all of the photos in Folder B that are already in Folder A and delete them. I have identified Folder A as "protected". But when I run the scan, it leaves the duplicate photos as green (unmarked) whether they are in Folder A or in Folder B. I have to manually mark the Folder B photos if I want to delete them. With 50,000 duplicates, this is too manually intensive. How do I do this? Thanks.
I am working on Windows 11 with a purchased Pro version of Duplicate Photos Fixer.
Hello Tom,
Thank you for writing to us.
With Duplicate Photos Fixer Pro you can auto mark duplicates saved in a specific folder. To do so, firstly remove Folder A from the Protected folder. Once that is done, add both Folder A and B and run the scan to identify duplicates.
Once you have the scan results click the magic wand icon next to Selection Assistant.
This will open Selection Assistant window from where you can customize the rules auto marking rules.
Click the Selection Priority tab and set folder priority as 1. Use the arrow keys to change the priority. Once that is done, click Folder tab and here set the priority for folder A as 1. This you can again do using the down and up arrow icons.
Now click Mark. You will find that the duplicates in Folder B are automarked.
Hope this helps.
IF you still face any problem please send an email to support@systweak.com. They will be able to assist you further.
Thanks and Regards
