I’ve transferred over my Google backup multiple times. I have multiple “takeout” directories with duplicate data. Some of them are zip files too.
Is there a tool I can use to find and delete duplicate files? I tried letting Dupeguru run, but eventually it said I was out of memory, and it was not useful in finding or deleting anything.
To find duplicates i suggest github.com/qarmin/czkawka
WinMerge
thanks for steering this in the right direction
I’m not really awake yet, so I didn’t look at the community name
btw alternativeto.net has filtering options for open source and Linux options if op wants even more options

I’ve been using jdupes for a week or so and it’s worked well. It’s got a few options for deduplication if you just want to reclaim space and organization isn’t your priority (e.g. symlink/hardlink creation, block-level deduplication).
