Is there a way to find and sort duplicate files?

I'm a bit of a file hoarder, but mainly for art references.

I have windows 7 and I have found multiple of the same images, but with different names and sizes. Is there a program available that will search my files for duplicates? I read that windows 10 had something like it.

    Not sure if Windows itself has something to deal with that but there are likely many apps that can do so for free. Try searching for duplicate file managers (or something along those lines) & see what's what. I use one called Duplicate File Cleaner on my MacBook Pro though I am not sure if there is a Windows version to it.

    Programs like CCleaner have tools to look for duplicate files. You can filter by name only, or filter by name and size, etc....
