If I search specifically by name it shows me all of the versions and then I can delete the ones that are in the "wrong" place, but I don't have the time or inclination (despite my love of procrastination by rearranging files) to search 1000 titles. So is there a simple Dropbox search function for duplicates, or do I have to download some kind of app that will do the job. Can you download file titles and locations to a spreadsheet? At least that would let me filter/sort and then go back and find the ones I want to delete.

If that's required, I don't want one that automatically deletes duplicates, I want to pick which ones are required, but if you have any recommendations of on that is easy to use and pretty much straight forward (nothing fancy required, just find the duplicates (or those that may have a similar name since sometimes they get saved with slightly different titles), I'd appreciate the help.

CDF is a multi-purpose Duplicate Finder for Cloud. It allows you to load different cloud drives into the application's interface. It scans one Cloud account at a time. The method to scan folders/ files in Google Drive, Onedrive (including Onedrive Photos), Dropbox, and Box is same. In case of Amazon S3 Buckets, the CDF will allow you to add a new Bucket only after you remove the previously-added Bucket for duplicate files scanning.
Similar Photo Finder is an innovative duplicate photo scanning functionality. It will look for pictures, which are the same but not exact! It will check the pictures content instead of the size or hash. Currently, the duplicate image finder for Cloud will find visually similar images on Google Drive and OneDrive only.
Wise Duplicate Finder is a duplicate file finder with support for multiple comparison modes (size/name, partial match, full match), filters (images, audio, video, documents, etc), exclusions, and more. You can delete duplicate files manually or automatically and back them up to optionally restore.
But from the Dictionaries, it also seems that Finder is a tad more user friendly if you need aa reference to the new disk item. Hmmm I wonder how System Events duplicate files, with regards to item names.
But in this case you must reference the folder and file in the Finder before the System Events command will work, so it is almost reversed. I am curious if there is any advantage in doing this or if leaving the duplicate command to Finder is the way to go.
Fast Duplicate File Finder FREEWARE can find duplicate files in a folder, drive, computer or entire network. The application will compare the content of the files and will find duplicates even if they are using different file names.
The Professional version can find similar files regardless of their file types. It will analyze the file data in order to find duplicates and not just file attributes like name and size as the standard clone removers do. It uses advanced algorithms while searching for related files and provides accurate results, which is not true for the commonly advertised FUZZY search methods.

"Duplicate files over time you often move files around especially music photos and video files leaving the originals to sit and gather dust - there are a few free applications out there that can help to de-duplicate files good free one is Fast Duplicate File Finder."
Hard to believe it has been almost exactly four years since my previous duplicate finder performance comparison (2018 edition)! Life has been very busy since, so dupd has not had a release with new functionality (I did release dupd 1.7.1 last year but it only contains build and test fixes, no functionality difference from 1.7).
The file set has a total of 154205 files. Of these, 18677 are unique sizes and 1216 were otherwise ignored (zero-sized or not regular files). This leaves 134312 files for further processing. Of these, there are 44926 duplicates in 13828 groups (and thus, 89386 unique files). It is the exact same data set as in the 2018 performance test run.
Some System Files need to have duplicates for your computer to work properly, and if you remove then odd things can start to happen.
Unless you are an advanced user trying to fix a broken computer you should leave the System files alone, tell Duplicate Finder to Ignore them.
With regard to deleting any selected duplicates - If they are locked then CCleaner won't be able to delete them, nothing should be able to delete them.
That's why you lock things, to prevent them being altered or deleted unless/until you unlock them again first.
With regard to backups-
It will find duplicates using whatever you have told it to look for as being duplicated.
If you tell it to look for names and nothing else it will find all files with the same name.
If you tell it to look for size and nothing else it will find all files of the same size (whatever their name).
If you tell it to look for name and size it will find all files with the same name that are also the same size.
And so on.
It will (should) always find backups - because both the original and the backup will match whatever you tell it to look for.
Backups will have the same name as the original. They have exactly the same contents so will be the same size. They will have the same modified date.
That's the whole point of a backup - it is a deliberate duplicate in case you lose the original.
If it wasn't identical to the original then there wouldn't be much point.
If you don't want Duplicate Finder to find your backups as duplicates then simply add your backup folder path as an 'Exclude' in Duplicate Finder.
If a path is excluded then it won't be searched.
I would love to see the development in this thread. I too have tried many many duplication finder app for photos. I have used Gemini II and Duplicator finder (or similar name) but none has impressed me. I am going to check out Photosweeper and PhotoMill too.
It accepts all kinds of files and separates duplicates on import. Once import is complete I remove the folder containing my sorted files and discard the rest of the library (which includes the folder of duplicates it rejected).
