Q&A: Deleting Multiple Photo Copies

By J.D. BIERSDORFER
Q.
Is there an easy way to find and trash duplicate pictures in the Adobe Photoshop Elements program without having to manually search through my entire hard drive?

A.
The latest version of the program, Adobe Photoshop Elements 10, now includes a Duplicate Photo search feature in the program’s Organizer component that rounds up duplicate (or near-duplicate versions) of a picture. If you do not have the latest version of the software, there are other methods.

An unofficial (but informative) guide to several earlier editions of Photoshop Elements at bit.ly/umpoHt has step-by-step instructions for a way to seek and delete duplicate photos in your collection. And among the tips and tutorials for photographers on the PhotoKaboom site, you can also find a page devoted to finding and deleting duplicate files — mostly by using third-party programs to hunt down the extra copies floating around your computer’s folders.
