Find and Remove Duplicate Files on a NAS

[jigarshah]

es, QNAP does have a way to find and remove duplicate files on the NAS. QNAP's File Station app has a built-in feature that can find and remove duplicate files. Here are the steps to use this feature:

Open File Station on your QNAP NAS.
Navigate to the folder you want to search for duplicates in.
Right-click on the folder and select "Find Duplicates" from the context menu.
File Station will then scan the folder for duplicate files and display the results in a new window.
From there, you can select which files you want to delete and click the "Delete" button to remove them.
It's important to note that this feature may take some time to scan large folders with many files, and it's always a good idea to double-check the results before deleting any files to avoid accidentally removing important data.





Qfiling could be handy https://www.qnap.com/en-uk/software/qfiling

Cant find this option. I am on latest QNAP 5.0.x and update file station. I also installed qfiling. Nothing there.
