Duplicate File Cleaner can make my Mac faster


Its very irritating to have your hard disks filled with unwanted files. This can delay the system's performance by reducing the free space on hard drive . This problem can be removed by simply finding and removing the duplicate files. This task cannot be accomplished manually because it takes too much of time and effort.

A third party tool delete duplicate files can save both effort and time of Mac users.. Although there are plenty of programs available for this task but the one which I have found most user friendly is Stellar speed up Mac.

The speed up Mac comes with multi-functionalities. Along with duplicate files it also removes cache, temporary files, large files and language files. This program is applicable both at bootable volume and non bootable volume as well.
Usually the duplicate files are consist of files that were downloaded multiple times, thousands of photos etc. Another issue is when a user updates programs or moves old files to a new computer. This often results in big files that you don't need anymore.

A good duplicate file checker will use a byte-to-byte method. It will compare byte size, bit rate, author, date, and more to help the mac user inspect the offending files, and either back the files up, or delete them. Same method is followed by Speed Up Mac also. It checks not only the name of files but also the content. Its lists all the files on you mac hard drive which have duplicate content.
