I thought I'd tidy up my downloads folder of duplicate files which have the same names except and appended number - typically it is an appended (1) or (2). (I admit to be messy at downloading - sometimes it is easier to download the same file than going to look for it, even within a single folder).

However a simple search within one folder, with the only criteria being duplicate filenames doesn't show any result. I guess because they are not truly duplicate, as I've described. (I rather thought I had seen somewhere that this would work but I guess not).

Is it possible to do this search? What criteria would I use...

Thanks Richard

what you can do is a SIMILARITY check on filenames, or forget filenames and search for size/content
