Duplicate Cleaner looks for files on your hard disc that appear twice. There may be a good reason for this - a program may require a file in a certain place to work. If in doubt, do not delete a file!  We recommend that you do not use Duplicate Cleaner to remove files from your Program Files, Windows folder, or indeed any other system folder.
