Just checking before I hit DELETE

Duplicate Files.jpg
I am delighted to have discovered this excellent tool!!!!
I recently had to do a complete reinstall of Windows 7 Ultimate due to some major issues that were preventing me from accessing and managing my rather huge media files!!! I have done the scan on my C drive as well as an external HD. I also have a separate 'HP MediaSmart Server' and an 'Apple Time Capsule' but I couldn't figure out how to scan Network drives, is this possible?

As you can see, I have a lot of duplication (copy of OLD Windows and multiple, multiple media copies). Is it OK for me to delete EVERYTHING from the final reported totals? Do I have to save one from each grouping?
I'm thinking that I'm OK to delete everything but I just wanted to make sure before I commit.

Thanks for an exceptional tool that looks like it will save me about 40GB!!!

You should save at least one from each grouping! The program will warn you if you try and delete all copies in a group. Always be careful, and remember to back up first!

Your screenshot is unreadable, btw :)
