OneDrive<\/strong> has been another wonderful addition to the services provided by Microsoft<\/strong> to users around the world. OneDrive<\/strong> is installed as a part of the Windows<\/strong> installation suite for Windows 10<\/strong>\u00a0whereas users of other Windows<\/strong> and Mac<\/strong> versions can manually download<\/a><\/strong> and install it. It offers quick and secure access to your important files and documents. Users have to simply move their files to the specific folder and all those files are automatically synced to the cloud. It\u2019s as simple as that!<\/p>\n

Sometimes, due to a mix-up, people end up with 2 copies of the same file sitting on their computer\u2019s HD<\/strong> as well as in the cloud. The chances of the occurrence of such an event are particularly high for people who aren\u2019t that well versed with the exact working of the cloud technology and how the Microsoft<\/strong> sync feature works. Duplication might not be that big of an issue in the beginning, but if you\u2019re someone who regularly works on many documents and saves them on the cloud, this duplication issue can and will surely snowball into a big mess very soon.Luckily there is a neat and effective solution that can fix up all the duplicate files that are plaguing your OneDrive<\/strong>.\u00a0Clone Files Checker<\/b> version 5.3<\/b> allows to easily scan your OneDrive<\/b> for any duplicate contents and get rid of them safely. It offers this much goodness without compromising on your data as well as your account\u2019s safety. Even cool is the fact that not even a single trace of this data is stored anywhere, at any time, during the entire process! And the results are bound to leave you speechless.<\/p>\n

  7. Once the scan results are out, you can choose which kind of file to retain (Select Duplicates<\/b> button) and finally decide whether to delete the duplicates or let CFC<\/b> move them to a folder that will be specifically created if you opt for this course-of-action (Select Action<\/b> button).\n
