How to find copies on Aliexpress? Brands on Aliexpress. Calling on reserves: where iPhone, iPad, iPod backups are stored on the computer Changing the storage location of iPhone backups

After a long, constant use of a computer, large amounts of data, i.e., all sorts of photographs, videos, films, music, documents, etc., accumulate on its disks, whatever one may say. When data takes up a lot of space, this is normal, for example, I myself have more than 600 GB of necessary data, and for others it’s even more. But very often duplicate files take up too much space.

Such files can appear when, for example, you transfer them from somewhere to a new location on the disk, forgetting that you already have such files on this disk. And it’s okay if there are a lot of duplicates of all kinds of documents, but when there are a lot of duplicate photos, music and especially videos, then this, as a rule, will take up a lot of your disk space. I recently checked and found that duplicates are eating up about 100 GB. on the hard drive, which, in my opinion, is quite a lot :)

In this article, I will show you an easy way to find all duplicate files in Windows on your drives, so you can easily check them and quickly delete everything you don't need.

In Windows, unfortunately, there are no normal built-in tools for finding duplicate files. There is an option to do this via the PowerShell command line, but this is very inconvenient, especially for beginners. Therefore, it is easier to use third-party programs. One of these is called AllDup. It is completely free, available in Russian, supported by all Windows operating systems and, finally, quite easy to use.

Downloading and installing the AllDup program

The program can be downloaded for free from the official AllDup website. Below is the link to the download section:

The program is available in 2 versions: regular installation and portable (Portable). The portable version is different in that it does not require installation on a computer, i.e. the program can be launched directly from the downloaded folder.

To download, click the “Server #1” button, or “Server #2” or “Server #3” (if the first button does not download, backup servers are provided) under the desired version of the program.

Direct links to download the latest version to date (March 2017) AllDup: standard version, portable version. For the latest versions, always refer to the official AllDup website!

Installing the program is very simple, one might say it consists of successive clicks “Next”; no special settings need to be made. Therefore, I will not consider this process.

Finding duplicates using AllDup

After installing the program, run it. The main window for search settings will open:

Setting up a search includes several steps:

1. Select folders on your drives where AllDup will look for duplicates.

   Folders are selected in the "Source Folders" section. You can mark entire local drives or individual folders on your computer. Usually, users roughly guess where duplicates may be located, and in this case it is better to select specific folders, because a complete search across all disks, firstly, can take a lot of time (depending on the amount of data stored), and secondly, it will give you a bunch of duplicates of those files that are not of interest to you (for example, duplicates of any Windows system files that are better not to touch at all).

   So, select the desired folders/drives to search in the window by checking the boxes next to them. If the folder you need is not in the list, you can add it manually by right-clicking (hereinafter “RMB”) in the window and selecting “Add Folder”.

   Explorer will open, where you just need to select the desired folder and it will be added to the list.

   It is better to leave the remaining parameters as they are at this stage.

2. Method for finding duplicates.

   This is an important step where you configure what criteria AllDup will use to determine the presence of duplicates. You can set several criteria at once. The thing is that similar files cannot always be considered duplicates. For example, you have 2 identical photographs, but one of them has a small black dot, even if it is 1 pixel in size. In this case, it is a different photograph because its content is different. On the other hand, these 2 photos may have the same file name, the same file extension, and when you select the last 3 criteria, the program will regard these photos as the same when searching.

   • File name;
   • File extension;
   • File size;
   • File contents.

   With this choice, you will certainly accurately find duplicate files.

   Thus, mark the criteria and you don’t have to configure anything else at this stage.

3. File filtering.

   You can configure the program so that during the search it finds only files with the extensions you need, for example, only JPG photos, only MP4 videos. This is very convenient when you know which duplicates you want to get rid of first (for example, from a video, because it can take up a lot of space) and then you don’t want to rummage through all the files in the search results, of which there can be thousands. Or you can filter files by size, for example, find only those larger than 1 GB.

   Thus, on the “File Filter” tab, enable the “Use file filter” option (1), check “Inclusive” (2), and then below (3) select the file extensions that the program will find. Files with any other extensions will not appear in search results.

   Most likely, the list of extensions will not contain all the ones you may need. To add an extension there, right-click and select “Add filter by entering text.”

   In the window that opens (1), enter *.file_extension, where instead of “file_extension”, respectively, indicate the file extension you need so that the program finds these files in the search.

   For example, if you want the program to find videos in AVI format, write *.avi and click “OK” (2). The "*" symbol means that the file names can be anything.

   At the same stage, you can configure filtering of files as a result of a search by their size, for example, to filter out those that are smaller than the size you specify. Enter the options you want below, under the "File Size" heading. In my example, the option is enabled to exclude files whose size is less than 500 KB.

These are all the main stages of setting up a search; the rest can be omitted.

Now, to start searching for duplicates, click the “Search” button at the top of the AllDup window:

The search process will begin.

The more files in the folders you specify are on your disks, the longer the search will take.

After the search is completed, the program will display the found files with duplicates in the form of a table.

The first thing that is better to do right away is to save the search results, because if you now close this window with the results, then you will have to perform the search again. To save, click the button with the image of a floppy disk, or select “Search result” in the top menu and click “Save search result.”

Now, even if you turn off your computer, and then launch the program again, you will be able to get to the search results again.

You can sort the search results by different parameters by clicking on the column headings in the table. The most useful sorting criterion, in my opinion, is file size. Therefore, if you want the largest files found to be displayed at the top of the table, then click on the “Size (Bytes)” column.

The next thing that is best to configure for ease of viewing results is the displayed size. Initially, the program shows the file size in bytes, which is not very convenient. It is better to display in megabytes or even gigabytes. To do this, click the button marked in the screenshot below (1), then check one of the options (2):

Now I’ll dwell on how to actually use the search results, how to view and remove unnecessary duplicates...

The program divides the found duplicates into so-called groups. One group is all found copies of the same file, including the original (it will also be displayed in this group).

To view duplicates of one of the groups, you need to open it by clicking on the arrow. Example:

Once you have expanded a specific group, you can check what kind of file it is by opening it. To do this, simply double-click on the file in the group, or right-click and select “Open file”. The file will be opened through a standard Windows program, through which you usually open all files of the selected type.

To delete duplicates, check them, right-click and select one of the options: deleting the file to the Windows Recycle Bin, or permanently deleting it.

Accordingly, do not delete all files from the group, because this way you will delete both duplicates and the original at once! For example, if there are 3 files in a group, then by deleting 3 at once, you will delete both the original and 2 duplicates. In this case, to keep only one single copy of the file, you need to remove 2 files from the group.

This way you can check each group separately and remove duplicates. But if a lot of information has been found, it can be done simpler. Make sure that the program automatically selects all files in each group except one (i.e., only duplicates), after which you can get rid of all duplicates at once, or before that, go through and double-check whether everything marked is exactly to be deleted.

To automatically mark duplicates, go to the “Select” menu (1) and check and enable one of the options there (2), for example, “Select all files except the first file.”

As a result, the program will select 2 duplicates in each group, and leave the first file in the list unselected. Those. this way you will mark 2 duplicates, and the original will remain unmarked. Or you can use the “Select” menu to try other options that are convenient for you.

Once the program has marked the files, you can double-check your selection if required. And to quickly delete everything unnecessary or perform some other action, click the button marked in the screenshot below:

In the window that opens, you will see the total volume of the selected files, i.e. how much space the found duplicates take up and the number of selected files. At the bottom you need to select an action on the selected files. You can delete files through the recycle bin, delete them permanently (the “Delete files” item), copy or move files to a folder, and also rename the found duplicates. If you are sure that the marked files are duplicates and you no longer need them, then it is easier to delete them, but in any case, the choice is yours.

So, select the desired action (1) and click “OK” (2). You don't need to configure anything else here.

After this, the program will perform the action you selected on the previously marked files!

That's basically the whole process :) To exit the search results, just close this window. If you have saved your search results, then if you need this result again, you can get to it through the “Search Result” section (1) in the main program window. The results you saved will be displayed in the table (2). To open the desired result, simply double-click on it.

Conclusion

AllDup is a very convenient program for finding duplicates of your files on your computer. There is essentially nothing superfluous in the program; it has all the necessary tools, filters and parameters for quickly processing a large volume of found duplicates. Of course, there are similar programs that probably also do their job well. So far I have only tried AllDup and I don’t see any point in changing it yet.

Countless times, we have backed up data, photos, media files and IDs of our Apple devices to a specific directory on the computer, but never asked ourselves where they are stored. Whether you're using a Mac or a Windows PC, you can find the location of your iPhone, iPad, and iPod backups.

Where are iPhone, iPad, iPod touch backups located on Windows or Mac?

iPhone, iPad, iPod backup files are located in the following folders by default:

1. Location of iTunes backup in Windows XP:/Documents and Settings/(username)/Application Data/Apple Computer/MobileSync/Backup/
2. Location of iTunes backup in Windows Vista/Windows 7/8/10: /Users/(username)/AppData/Roaming/Apple Computer/MobileSync/Backup/
3. iTunes backup location on Mac (Yosemite/Mavericks): ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/

"~" represents your OS-X home directory.

Everyone knows how to create backup versions of their iPhone, iPad using iTunes or iCloud, but not everyone has a clue how to find them, and where, in what folder on the computer these backups are stored. We know that iTunes can backup most of the data on your iOS device and store it in a specific folder on your desktop computer. And finding them can help you recover important iPhone data that you mistakenly deleted.

There is a real, real time machine in which you can briefly go back in time and see, for example, what this or that site looked like a few years ago. Do you think no one needs copies of sites from many years ago? You are wrong! For many people, an information archiving service is very useful.

First of all, it's just interesting! Out of pure curiosity and an abundance of free time, you can see what your favorite, popular resource looked like at the dawn of its birth.

Secondly, not all website owners keep their archives. Knowing where you can find information that was on the site at some point and then disappeared is not only useful, but very important.

Thirdly, comparison itself is the most important method of analysis, which allows us to evaluate the progress and results of our activities. By the way, when analyzing a web resource, it is very effective to use a number of comparison methods.

Therefore, the presence of a unique web page archive The Internet allows us to access a huge amount of audio, video and text materials. According to the developers, the “Internet Archive” stores more materials than any library in the world. We've come to the right place!

What you need to find copies of Internet sites

In order to go back in time, you need to go to the site archive.org and use the search bar.

A simple search in the archive of saved sites gives us links to all saved copies of the requested page.

From this it can be seen that the site was created in 2012 (By the way, it is important to note, with the help of almost perfect hosting Sprinthost- I recommend!). Switching to the year we need, you can see the dates highlighted in circles; these are the dates when a copy of the site was saved. For example, in 2015, so far it will be possible to see only one copy of February 7th.

Of course this is an amazing resource! After all, all Internet sites are indexed and archived here! These are not only screenshots... Having such a tool in your hands, you can restore a lot of information lost over time.

It should be noted that, of course, it will definitely not be possible to restore everything, since if Java Script elements are used on the site pages, or scripts or graphics are taken from a third-party server, then you cannot count on restoring such information. Therefore, you need to pay special attention to saving your website data, no matter what.

Taking this opportunity, I took screenshots and recalled in my memory what my website looked like starting in 2012. Curious to see))

The site was literally “born” recently)) January 2012...

Time passes, and I want to change something... The end of 2012.

It's probably time to change something. 2013 This is the theme that is still installed on my site today.

I approach changing the topic with caution, since I remember the last “moving”, after which it took several months to restore site traffic. Somehow it didn't work out very well.

I hope that this wonderful online library, a “time machine,” will be able to help my readers move through time whenever they want. Look at what some sites looked like back in the days of their inception. What Google or Yandex used to be can only be seen on archive.org; this resource has no analogues. Have a nice trip, friends!
