You can use the Selection Assistant button to help select the duplicates. Don't delete anything unless you are sure of what it is though...

how would you know which duplicate files to remove? If you select all will it delete needed files or will it keep you from removing needed files?

It has some protection against removing needed files - however you should only run DC against your own files (pictures, docs, etc) - things only you know whether or not you still need. It shouldn't be used to delete operating system stuff (program files/windows folders, etc).
