FindDupesInSubfolders lets you find duplicate files stored in the same folder within a directory structure. It works by enumerating the selection and running Find non-recursively on every folder. The results are returned as a dated collection.
How to setup and use
Save CommandFindDupesInSubfolders.js.txt to
%appdata%\GPSoftware\Directory Opus\Script AddIns
Add the new command to a button, hotkey, context menu, etc. like any built-in command. It can also be run from the FAYT Command field.
Select the folders you want to get checked and run FindDupesInSubfolders on them.
After the command has finished make sure the correct collection is selected in the panel, otherwise you may be unable to select and delete files.
