Duplicate Cleaner is, as you can probably tell from the name, a software utility used in order to free up disk space and unclutter your PC’s libraries by identifying and deleting any unwanted duplicates.
The program is fast and efficient, and it is built in such a way that you always know beforehand what you are about to delete, so accidental data wipes are highly unlikely.
Duplicate Cleaner’s system requirements
One common thing among simple software utilities, especially those focused around directly or indirectly optimizing your PC, is that they usually have incredibly low system requirements.
This is because the need to delete duplicates is a common one, and those running older PCs with less storage space have much greater use for it that anyone else.
That being said, here are the system requirements:
- Operating system:
- Windows 10/ 8.1/ 8/ 7/ Vista/ XP*
- Windows Server 2003, 2008, 2008 R2, 2012, 2012 R2*
- Architecture: This program supports both 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems
- Processor: 1 GHz or faster
- Memory: 64 MB RAM
- Space: 20 MBs of free HDD space
- Display: 1024 x 768 High Color (or better)
- Internet connection: required for software download and registration.
* Note: Windows XP is no longer supported by Duplicate Cleaner 4. If you want to use Duplicate Cleaner on Windows XP you will need to download version 3.2.7.
