At some point over the last few hours I threw together this application, its a minor app. I needed a way to identify potentially duplicate files in a certain folder on my network, and I really didn’t want to do it manually, so here is a quick little program to take care of that task in a rather dirty fashion. I use the program to identify potentially duplicate videos that have been stored in dated folders after being downloaded.

The application is written in C# and requires .NET 3.5 to run (if you are on a modern Windows OS, you are ok). The program will take a folder you specify and treat it as the top of the tree, and from there recursively gather filenames. Once those names are gathered it compares all of the base file names as well as sizes. Not a fancy app, but thought it might be useful to someone.
