How to Find and Remove Duplicate Files from Hard Drive

There is a number of reasons why it is important to avoid having duplicates of files on your hard drive. Having duplicate files can take up hard drive space which may be valuable if you are running low on space. Getting rid of duplicates also makes the hard disk tidy and will avoid any confusion involving the same file located in different places.

So what can you do when you want to get rid of all the duplicate files on the computer and what software is available that can help with this task? In this post we will take a look at some of the best duplicate file removers to help you get rid of all your duplicate files.

How to Find and Remove Duplicate Files

There are many free applications out there such as Duplicate Cleaner free by Digital Volcano offers a piece of software that has a high-quality interface and very easy to use. DupeGuru is another company that develops applications that can search and delete duplicates from the hard drive. Both programs are very good at what they do. Duplicate cleaner stays a little ahead with a nicer interface.
In this tutorial we will use Duplicate Cleaner by Digital Volcano. Download Duplicate Cleaner from Digital Volcano’s website. Use the non-cnet version to download.

Once downloaded, install the program and then open it.

Under the search criteria tab you will find some options. If it seems to be complicated just leave it as is. Then click on the scan location tab.

Select a drive or multiple drives here. You can also select folders. After that click on ‘Scan Now’ button located on the top under the menu bar.

Duplicate Cleaner will scan your drive or folder at this point.

Once the scan is completed, you will see all the duplicate files. Select all the files that you want to delete by clicking the check boxes. Afterwards click on ‘File Removal’ button to delete them.
It also offers advanced options. These include images, music and general files. But you need to upgrade to pro version to use them. Its very simple but effective, with a focus on doing the job well without the addition of any annoying features which are not needed. Images can be a type of file which are often duplicated on a hard drive and therefore you may wish to choose an application which is designed specifically for this type of file. There a number of programs that do this very well and will scan the image to make sure that it is a duplicate. This means that you can delete images that are duplicated even if they have a different file name.
Choosing a program such as the ones that I just described are extremely useful for individuals who use the computer on a regular basis and deal with a wide range of files which can easily become duplicated. By keeping one of these applications on the desktop, you will be provided with an easy solution for deleting duplicate files whenever it begins to become an issue. It is also important to consider a file duplication finder which is designed for a specific type of file, and this is especially important if you work within a specific medium, such as that of imagery or music and consistently have problems with duplicating files. If you need any help don’t forget to ask by commenting below.

Google Creates New Program To Help Emerging Game Devs

Google has created a new program to help emerging game developers. The new program is called Infinite Deviation: Games and was created in partnership between the Google Play team, Google’s CS in Media team, and Ideas United, and aims to focus on opening up more opportunities for game devs to create and pitch their ideas on Google Play, regardless of their background. This new program is also somewhat separate from the original Infinite Deviation initiative, which doesn’t focus on any one thing and instead covers a more broad set of categories like the arts, 3D printing, and computer science just to name a few things.
The Infinite Deviation: Games program just like the overall initiative is a way to be more inclusive of people who come from all kinds of groups and communities, including people from the LGBTQIA+ community, people with disabilities, women, and people from all ethnic backgrounds so as to ensure that everyone has the same opportunities.
Similar to Google’s Indie Games festivals, game developers who wish to pitch their game concepts as part of this new program will have some limitations to keep in mind. For example, it’s required that any dev who is submitting an application for a concept has less than two years experience in the professional game design industry. Any developers who have more than two years of experience will not be eligible. Another requirement is the time window that developers have to submit their applications, which starts today, September 12th, and goes through October 9th so there will be almost an entire month to submit applications for presenting game concepts. Out of all the applicants a team of industry experts will choose the best three submissions, and those three will get to develop their games further, all the while getting any support and resources they need, and eventually bringing their games to completion so they can be enjoyed by all. Creativity will be a big factor in deciding on which games should move forward, but Google stresses that games will also need to be able to tell an inclusive story that is geared towards multicultural audiences with the aim of shedding some more light on computer science and hopefully paint it in a more favorable light.

5 Awesome Things That iPhone Can Do But Android Cannot!

We cannot compare Android and iPhone as both of them are two different Operating Systems and have their own specialty. In spite of it, there are some activities which you can only perform on iPhone but not on an Android device. I have listed some of the awesome things which can be done using iphone but not by an android device. But before starting I would like to remind you to share this post with your friends and follow me for more interesting posts.

iMessage


Imessage is one of the best iphone feature which allows free voice and text messaging globally. But it only connects Apple products such as Iphone and ipad. This service is fascinating and cost-effective. Android cannot touch this feature at any cost. The iPhone users have lots of benefits which Android users usually get nothing.

FaceTime


The name itself indicates the purpose of this feature. FaceTime is used for video calling on apple devices similar to imessage. The users can connect Apple devices like the iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch and Mac for video calling. You can use the rear and front cameras at the same time during the video call. You can also record and video call at the same time. I don't think android have such app.

Access to iTunes


If you love music then you will surely love itunes. It is a music player with lots of songs, video streamer, and live podcast. Itunes gets updated regularly so that the users can get live updates, concerts and listen to latest songs in every language.

Siri


Siri is a virtual assistance owned by Apple Inc. Siri can set up appointments, reminders and it can also take your selfies. Siri also has language translation features which are available in five languages (Chinese, French, German, Italian and Spanish).

Always Updated Version


Another feature of apple(and also other apple devices) is that it gets updated on time. The company updates your device as soon as new IOS is announced. Android devices may get delayed in updates depending upon their OEM skin and company.
So guys, these were the 5 Awesome Things That iPhone Can Do But Android Cannot. Give your opinion about these Iphone features and don't forget to share this article with your friends.

Here's What Actually Happens To Your Skin When You Get A Tattoo

Tattoos are beautiful works of art. While some may not see it that way, when you consider the time and energy that goes into a tattoo. Tattooing is a really interesting process. They use between five and seven needles, depending on what part of the tattoo the artist is doing. For lines, usually five needles are used, and for shading, seven needles are used. 
The tattoo is actually injected in between layers of skin—that is what makes it permanent. When you write on your skin with a marker, it only goes on the epidermis, which is the very top layer of skin. This top layer of skin rejuvenates itself often, and you shed layers of dead skin—70-80 percent of dust is dead skin. 

Internet
That's what makes the tattoo permanent—the ink is injected into your dermis, where it will stay. 
Different areas of your body are going to be more painful when you get a tattoo. Areas with less fat tend to be more painful: for example, the top of your foot, your inner forearm, your rib cage. These areas have little fat protecting the veins and muscles. 
Since tattoos are put into your skin, they require aftercare that is very important to their healing. You should treat your fresh tattoo like an open wound, cleaning it gently with clean hands and keeping it dry. 

Protect your bank account with this app that generates virtual debit cards

Data breaches have unfortunately become too common in today’s day and age. Using websites like HaveIBeenPwned.com can help you stay on top of which accounts of yours have been exposed, but financial fraud isn’t always so easy to track. That’s especially true when our debit card is tied directly to our bank accounts with very little control of what can be charged to it and what can’t.
That’s where apps like Pay by Privacy.com are aiming to shake things up. Instead of entering your bank’s debit card number onto a myriad of websites, you can generate a merchant-tied or one-time user burner card instead of handing out your financial info. Here’s a peek at my setup so far with cards I’ve generated for Netflix, Cricket, and Google Play.

Not sure why you should use a service like Pay by Privacy.com is offering? Here’s a handful of good reasons why you should consider it.

1. Stop leaving your debit card info on third-party websites.

A few years ago I bought a domain from GoDaddy and stupidly left my PayPal information attached to that account. I forgot about it until just a few months ago when I woke up to an email from PayPal saying I had charged $371 worth of new servers from GoDaddy. Thankfully I was able to talk to PayPal’s fraud resolution department and get the charges removed, but I think things would have been worse if I had left my debit card info on the account that got hacked.

Privacy.com prevents that from happening by generating a virtual debit card that’s tied to your own bank account. That way third party sites like GoDaddy only have access to the monthly limit you set on the card when you create it.

2. Stop those “free trials” you sign up for from charging you.

If you’ve ever signed up for a free trial of any service on the web, chances are you had to hand over your credit card info when you signed up. That’s great for the vendor since plenty of people can forget to cancel those trials and they’ll end up paying for months they didn’t even use the service.
If you’re one of those people who has accidentally let a free trial overstay its welcome in your financial budget, then Privacy.com can help you stop that from happening.

The app lets you create burner virtual debit cards that are a one time use. You can enter the credit card info into your free trial to start it and immediately cancel if you don’t like it. Like the subscription enough to keep it? Just change your payment info to a merchant-based card and set a monthly limit and you’re gold.

3. Stop a merchant from overcharging you with monthly limits.

A few months ago I moved across the country and had to end the cable service I had been paying for several years with no issues. I called the company and canceled the service and was told to drop off the modem I paid to rent for years with their service center in my town. Great, no problems.

Fast forward two months and I see a charge for the cable company in the old state where I used to live appear on my bank account. I call them and ask what the charge is for and they tell me unreturned equipment. Of course, I have no way to prove I returned the equipment to them, so I had to initiate a dispute with my bank in order to get my $110 back. It was a long drawn out process that could have been avoided if I had been using Privacy.com at the time.

4. Stop items from appearing on your funding source statement.

Buying things discreetly online is nearly impossible if you share an account with someone who also has access to the monthly statements. You can’t even buy a birthday gift for them without them knowing how much the item cost. Privacy.com allows you to filter generic statements to your funding source, preventing them showing up as bought from the original merchant.

That can come in handy if you want to get a secret birthday gift for your wife, or just hide the fact that you’ve got a PornHub Premium subscription. Hey, we’re not judging.
I’ve switched all of my online subscriptions like Netflix, Hulu, HBO Now, Google Play Music, and even my Cricket service to go through Privacy.com and I’ve had no problems with these services being able to use the virtual debit cards that are generated by Privacy.com.
The Android app works great and best of all, there’s even a Chrome Extension to generate new card info. With as often as retailers are breached these days, it’s become necessary for consumers to have a way to protect themselves and Pay by Privacy.com fits that bill pretty well. If you want to give it a shot, you can sign up with my referral link and earn $5 towards your first payment using the service. It’s 100% free.
