I can see duplicated files that are identical in these folders and subfolder below
C:\OneDrive\Documents\_Properties\My Web Sites\
and
C:\OneDrive\Documents\Documents\_Properties\My Web Sites\
but any of several searches using different parameters does not show the dupes.
What am I doing wrong.
This is very simple but not working

Find duplicates in different folders
Re: Find duplicates in different folders
Identical in what manner? Date & size?files that are identical
What searches/parameters?but any of several searches using different parameters does not show the dupes
Are you using 'Same content'?
Have you verified a pair of these files - outside of DC, using say a hash check program?
And do the two hashes match?
If not, then they are not "Same content" identical, IOW, they are not identical.
(I know nothing of "One Drive", nor if it adds "metadata" to files?)

Re: Find duplicates in different folders
Sometimes the OneDrive folders are classed as system folders.
If you are scanning from a lower folder you may need to uncheck:
'Skip system folders'
or
'Don't follow NTFS mountpoints...'
