I've been using a Diskstate trial version, for it's duplicate file finding ability. I've tried other programs that do that but I've not liked the interfaces. Diskstate now has a lot more features than the one I use, but duplicate file locating/managing is the main thing I care about. Years ago I think I saw an version that didn't expire but I'm not sure. Anyone have a an old trial or freeware version of Diskstate? The less features the better.
oops, it seems I was not paying attention and put this in the wrong forum.
I searched all forums before posting and knew the request forrum was there, but did it wrong anyway. sorry.

Version: 1.14 (misleading actually downloads 2.1 or thereabouts I ran it but it was late & I cant rember :) ) Only site 1 worked for me on this download page, on another page I saw an indication that V1.14 might not have any limitations but it dosent say trail or demo either.

It's been a while, but thanks for the tips on the other programs. I had been using a couple of
PC Magazine utilities because the older Diskstate versions didn't do enough, and the newer
ones were $$ only. The PC Mag utilities are ok but they are pretty basic and the compare
directory tool seemed to miss a lot.
I tried two of the programs mentioned above, and of the two I think CloneSpy will work for me.
I haven't tried Double Killer yet but I no doubt will also.
