Thank you for this much needed info. Our lives is full off photos it seems. I have a question. My master folder is on my windows laptop but I have an iPhone now. Always had Samsung. It was so simple to organise and download photos. I can’t seem to get the iPhone photos downloaded now.
Is there something I have to do that I don’t know about.

Hi Jennifer,
I used to have a very organized Pictures folder. This is going back to before Windows 10 was released. The Pictures program in 10 has a habit of creating duplicate pictures and folders that I haven’t ordered. Any ideas on how to stop the software from rearranging my pictures and duplicating them in several different folders?
I used to save my pictures on CD_ROMs but now there appear to be too many to fit on a disc. Do you have a way around this issue?
I also have two external hard drives. The first is 1 terabyte in size and the second is 3 Terabytes. As you may have figured, there are dupes on them as well. Which means I may have 3 or 4 copies of each picture I want to save. I would think that would rule out any software coming to my aide.
Thanks for being there.
Terry

In reply to Julie Spady. Yes, just take that into account when you are comparing files and folders. For images with a date of pre-2015, you'll want to look in the event folder.

The home that I have most of my photos from the last 5 years is in my picture on Windows. I have them organized by event. In 2015 I started organizing my new pictures into 2015 and then by month. Im doing the same from here forward. Can I still find duplicates with my old pictures organized how they are?

Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I had already made a master and I am still moving my photos into it. But would have forgotten to make a copy. Thank you so much for sharing it is much appreciated.

Hi Jennifer,

you are so right about eliminating the cause and being more organized. For my type of work where I dab my hands in photography and also post images of my paintings in different crops and sizes for different websites, I’ve found DPC (which is an image similarity finder) very helpful. Because it basically tells me “OK, here’s an image and there are X similar ones” and then it’s up to me what to do with them. Actually, I wouldn’t suggest anyone to use something that deletes files automatically because that can lead to trouble.
