With MEGA, you can tag a folder and 'manage link' and keep that link for posterity, when someone needs that info, all I need do is open a text file on that model bike, and PM/email the link.On many occasions we have talked about tools to keep the operating system clean, delete temporary files, cache, etc., as well as the occasional tool to eliminate duplicate files. I have over 4 gBytes of documentation on MEGA now, and NO dupes!!! I checked the boxes on the dupes, and sent them to a holding cell for later examination to verify they are unneeded now. When I ran it, I started counting: I made it to ' one thousand and two ' and it was done!!! Then #3 on the list in the Link above showed me what I want, a utility that has a very well designed GUI. The ones that work only in terminal were discarded immediately as unusable, and fussy to deal with. So, I did a web search for utilities that would list duplicates. That lasted about an hour, with no discernible progress in getting the job done. I did several tests to see how long it takes to sync up, less than 3 seconds, I was amazed.ĭoesn't matter if you make a change on the PC, or on MEGA, it is updated to the other end immediately, including renaming files.Īt first, I tried to just sort it all out with NEMO and look for duplicate names. Plus, MEGA has a SYNC utility, which allows me to manage only the files on my laptop. I have replaced HighTail with which gives you a display that is identical to what I see in NEMO. So, I just methodically downloaded every thing there, to my PC. It is just a list of 'sent files', some with descriptions, but most of them, I failed to write a title on them. HighTail does not have a way to look at your files in a Folder so you can tell what is there.

On HighTail I had sent out the same documents many times to different members of our forums.Īnd therein lay a huge problem. Recently it became extremely obvious, that I needed to weed out the duplicates. Gathered it up from a lot of sources, and it has been plastered on HighTail's host server, and on a slew of different HDDs over the years.

I have been collecting documentation on my motorcycle hobby for 20+ years. dupeGuru – Find Duplicate Files in a Linux
