Let's start by taking a group, for example, these images, or this start by taking a group, for example, these images, or this image is similar to this one, and so on. You then go

[02:27] image is similar to this one, and so on. You then go to the groups and select the similar images. So, this image is the same as this one, and this one as well—these are all similar images. You go to these groups and select the images as you see. Of course, if you did

[03:46] Images, Videos, Documents, Audio, and Others. It will then search for duplicate files. We'll wait a bit and be back. Okay, it's

[03:59] 100% finished. There's also something called " Smart Removal," which automatically detects and Smart Removal," which automatically detects and removes duplicate files. However, this is a paid feature. Let's try the "Review" or "Duplicate Check" option. Here, it will show

[04:16] try the "Review" or "Duplicate Check" option. Here, it will show you all the files, or documents, including PDFs. Here are the files and stuff, and here are the pictures, and here are the videos, and so on. Let's try it. Let's try the videos. We'll select a video, and here's the sorting option, which creates a filter system.

[04:31] We'll leave it as is, and it will give us a preview. Here are the files. For example, this video is duplicated three times. If you want to watch the video, you double-click on it, and it will start playing. Here's the video. As you can see, the video is 49 seconds long. We'll go to the

[04:48] you can see, the video is 49 seconds long. We'll go to the second one. Here's the same video, also 49 seconds long. This video is duplicated three times, and it shows you its locations. So, I can easily delete two copies. Here's another video. Here's the

[05:03] delete two copies. Here's another video. Here's the video. Okay, this is the video, so it's video. Okay, this is the video, so it's duplicated. Here's the video. Okay, you want to play it? Peace be upon you. How are you?

[05:31] one, it's duplicated twice, and this one is duplicated too, the same image, and so on. Then duplicated too, the same image, and so on. Then you click on "Remove to Recycle Bin," and then you'll see that you've deleted the duplicates. Now there's a really great feature,

[05:50] duplicates. Now there's a really great feature, which is the disk space analyzer. I always which is the disk space analyzer. I always have a problem with my C drive filling up. have a problem with my C drive filling up. If we go to C, we see there's only 3 GB

[06:02] left. So we'll go to the disk space analyzer, click "Start," select C, and tell it to analyze. I want to know where the space is, what files are taking up

[06:14] all this space. I haven't installed many programs; this is literally the reality, not just because I'm explaining the program. Okay, that's it, great. The search is finished. Now you see it categorizes the space for you. The most space is

[06:27] The search is finished. Now you see it categorizes the space for you. The most space is in the user accounts. Okay, here it's 131 GB, and Windows in the user accounts. Okay, here it's 131 GB, and Windows only has 34 GB, so I have the most space in the user accounts, so I start to discover it. Double-click on it, and it tells me the file with 130

[06:42] Double-click on it, and it tells me the file with 130 GB is named this. Okay, so I start going to it. GB is named this. Okay, so I start going to it. Here, UpData guides you step by step to the areas taking up the most space. See here, CapCat is taking up 94 GB. CapCat alone is taking up 94 GB. So, we start

[06:57] clicking on it again. Every time we click on it, it opens another folder. So here, CapCat opens another folder. So here, CapCat is taking up UserData, which is taking up 85 GB, and the application itself is taking up 9 GB. Now, let's go to UserData. Here, the cache has 81 GB. Now, let's go to the cache. Here,

[07:14] cache has 81 GB. Now, let's go to the cache. Here, SmartCrop is taking up 46 GB. If we go to it, it shows you the videos. I edited these videos and finished them, but they're in the cache of the CapCat files on the Windows partition. These are all

[07:29] Windows partition. These are all videos I don't need and they're still on the computer. So, you can easily remove the ones you don't want. You just drag and drop them here want. You just drag and drop them here in the Delete section, and so on. Now you can take all the files

[07:45] you don't want, meaning these are only 4 GB. We will click on Review and Remove, so if you want to review them and see them, okay? Then you press remove. You want to take his route and go in and see for

[07:57] yourself. This is the path, as you can see. If we go to the area like this, let's go back to it as it is, why? Because it didn't permanently delete the files, they're still in the

[08:10] permanently delete the files, they're still in the recycle bin. If we delete what's in the recycle bin, it's safer for you to the highest degree. If we go back again, you see, it's 8 GB, it was a little over. I'll start now. After I finish the video, I'll have some fun and free up

[08:27] space so that I don't see this red mark. Of course, as I told you, it gives you a this red mark. Of course, as I told you, it gives you a free trial, but of course, to benefit from all these features, you might need to buy the paid version. And

[08:42] you might need to buy the paid version. And these are the program prices. I hope the video is useful for you. Peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you. Yeah.
