Yes, and that's actually the smarter way to detect duplicate files. Think about it this way—changing a file's name doesn't change what's inside it. A photo named Vacation.jpg and another named IMG_001.jpg could be exactly the same image. On the other hand, two files called Report.docx might contain completely different information because one has been updated.
The SysInfo OneDrive Duplicate File Finder avoids this confusion by checking the actual file data instead of depending only on filenames. It compares metadata and binary data to confirm whether files are truly identical. After scanning, it presents the duplicate files for your review so you can choose which copies to keep and which to remove. This method makes duplicate cleanup much more accurate and helps ensure that valuable files are not deleted by mistake.
