| |- File1b - 6 - 24 MB (pic1, 8 megapixel, uncompressed BMP) I've heard of a few ways to do it but they seem to be a bit ? (I actually did have something set up on a Windows install though on a PC I no longer have, though), and I understand WSL only supports "new" filesystems with Linux distros installed through the Windows store, or am I wrong there?) So far my google kung-fu is no where near having a black belt (not even a white belt) in finding a good solution myself.Īn example or few on what I mean by duplicate folder (or filetype) finding. (I don't think Windows has a good way of mounting ext2/3/4 partitions that already exist yet. (The "properties" on the lower right says it was finding almost 13 million files, taking up 18.9 TiB / 20.75 TB of space.)Īnd while a lot of my stuff has been done in Windows, I do have some ext# partitions so I'd want to search through those as well. I would basically be searching through this, plus maybe a couple other drives.
(I think the ones that ran Windows 2000 on the single-core 1.4 GHz Athlon might have some like that, idk for sure.)Īnd there's a possible chance I might want to be able to someday run some old program for nostalgia's sake - some program that may no longer be available anymore.Īs for the duplicate finding. I might want to preserve some of those files. would be nice.Īlso (so it doesn't get buried below) how old of an OS clone / backup (bootable in case my main goes Tango Uniform, or I want to restore to a previous state) would most of you recommend keeping? (As in, older than that could likely be sent to the bit bucket in the sky.) Would it be a certain length of time, like X months/years? Or maybe "if I no longer have the system that booted that OS, I can toss this backup"? (I'm guessing the ones that say "2002DT_Ath1p4_W2K" would be candidates, as they're from our PC we'd gotten in 2002 that ran Windows 2000, and had a single-core Socket A Athlon 1.4 GHz CPU.)Įven on the ones I would toss, there could be the possible issue (especially some older Windows installs) where some apps I commonly used back in the day stored user files (like text, pictures, etc) in the program files folder or even in the OS folder itself.
Also the ability to find different bitrates / codecs / quality formats of the same audio, video, photos, etc. Some duplicates may be at different levels, on different drives, etc. Also there may be some where not ALL the files / folders under a given parent may be duplicated, but there would be some duplicates. Hey does anyone know of a good duplicate folder / file finder under Linux? Emphasis on "folder", as I probably have quite a few duplicated trees, or at least partly duplicated.
