Finding Unique Files

    Open the Cleaning menu and choose Find Unique Files to scan files, folders, and disks for files that are not duplicates of any other file.

    The process of scanning for unique files is identical to the process of scanning for duplicate files, so the information presented about finding duplicate files is generally relevant to the Find Unique Files command. The only differences are:
    A scan for unique files reports the files eliminated in a scan for duplicate files.
    A scan for duplicate files discards references to unique files at different points in the process of identifying the duplicate files. Because a scan for unique files retains those references to unique files, it will require more memory.
