Curt:
I wonder why I didn't see this thread the first time it was around? Never mind; I didn't. I have been using Image Comparer for a year or so, and I like it a lot, and believe it fulfils ALL of the requested features. In fact it is hard for me to imagine anyone would want more features! Okay okay, we all want more features, but,  you know what I mean: Image Comparer is REALLY well equipped...

thanks for the tip. the more programs to choose from, the better!

it looks like this program has trouble with an enormous amount of files too.
from the forum: http://www.bolidesoft.com/forum/about1064.html

I have a gallery with a large number of pictures in it (> 60K) and if I try to do a compare within the gallery the remaining time indicator runs out in about an hour into to compare with only 5% of the files compared. If I let the program run all day, the compare slows down (after 20 hrs) until it is taking several minutes to do one compare. I then have to stop the program as it would take a week to finish the job at the rate it was going. Sub folder comparisons (10K) of the same pictures do not have this problem.

- I have never tried this many images in one go, so I didn't know. My fav folder contains 6,700 images, which causes no problem. User should remember to save gallery, so IC can re-use the result the next time - user should not just create a new gallery each time. Edited: Also, users comparing > 60k images should have a lot of RAM, shouldn't they.

Curt:
Visual Similarity Duplicate Image Finder from MindGems is $25 but should equally be listed, because it will do the job fast & good. In fact I am thinking about having it replace Image Comparer! The $40 Pro version will read all picture formats.

For exact copies, I will use either Fast Duplicate File Finder (also from MindGems) or Duplicate Cleaner. Both $0.
