Field notes
The page frames the workflow around a growing archive: scan a library, group likely matches, review evidence for each match, then remove selected files through the Recycle Bin or quarantine. It lists both exact-file checks and visual or video comparisons, including cropped or rotated images and clips with different intros or playback speeds; the product is identified as version 1.0.0 for Windows 10/11, with installer and portable options. These are the maker's descriptions, not independently verified results.
