Auslogics Duplicate File Finder has the MD5 search engine which allows you to find duplicate files by content,
regardless other match criteria. It would be helpful, for example, when two identical mp3 tracks or video files

Hi
Any of the programs mentioned above, or any other program of this type cannot not make a real safe determination about unnecessary files.
Most of these programs at best can id duplicate files based on name, size, and date. However, it is dangerous to delete automatically without looking and make sure that it is not really unneeded duplicate.
This has to be a Human determination. I have a lot of Music, Picture s, Documents, and Application. How any program,or any other person can determine for me what I need, and what is unnecessary
If you are not sure about specific System (OS) Files, make a list and post it.
We can do almost any thing with software, but that does not mean that every thing that is Done is really useful.
This is false. Hashing algorithms like MD5 or SHA1 can determinate with almost 100% accuracy if two files are the same, many of that programs can do it.
Different matter is deleting system files. It's always unsafe altering any SO related file, but for documents and media contents deduplication is done both at server level automatically and at user level using tools like the ones mentioned above.
