Thanks

Re: How do I find duplicate folders only
You can find folders with identical content using -
Regular Mode
-Same Content
-Included: *
This mode doesn't currently match duplicate folders on the same folder name though, so you may get differently named folders (but with identical content) in your results.

Thanks. But will this give me duplicate folders ONLY or also all the duplicate files in non-duplicate folders on the search source?

If you go to the duplicate folders tab this will show just the duplicate folders. You can select/delete folders from this tab.

Re: How do I find duplicate folders only
Thank you. This has finally worked.
My next step is bulk selecting the duplicate folders. There is no selection assistant in the Duplicate folders tab, and on the duplicate files tab I can't see how to select only those files where the entire folder is duplicated.
