Quick answer:\u00a0<\/strong>Windows 11 has no built-in duplicate photo finder. To clean duplicates on a PC, you have four real options: sort files manually in File Explorer (fine for a few hundred), turn off Linked Duplicates in Microsoft Photos (only groups iCloud\/OneDrive copies), run a PowerShell hash-comparison script (free, technical, exact matches only), or use a dedicated MacSonik Duplicate File Finder (finds exact and visually similar duplicates in bulk across formats). Pick by library size: under 500 photos, go manual. Over 500, use software. <\/span><\/p>\n
