by Firefox user 16217654, 2 years agoQuick, but could not delete all-bar-one, which makes sense when you think about it. Not everyone is going to be wanting some kind of hesitant, multiple locations cautious approach, most are likely to have all in one location either downloaded from their cloud, or self-managed and moved over manually each upgrade-up.
And even-if one was wanting to filter by location, or other attributes, to deliberately keep SOME but not all of the duplicates found, there was no custom / fiddly filtering if you did need that.
A couple of parallel useful functions, like delete empty subdirs (subdirectories but not initial directory highest-level 1st directories, only 2nd onward) ... but one was then needing to ALSO delete the 1st level - one needed to manually find the USERS/ location for them anyway, to remove the highest level.
mm... program permissions? not asking for administrator confirmation? 1st level has runtime carried-over, passed-on executed BY user permissions, but subsequent do not, and are more easily reversed? something. not really a timesaver, when then unless you were OK with STILL HAVING most of the upon-1st-mouse-hover drop-down list (lvl1 depth) ... STILL being as clogged as it was before having clicked delete empty directories,.. but did want to say,.. ONLY reduce the number of extra directories for things like reducing the amount of empty directories on one's computer for shortening how long windows search catalogs user directories for the Index? sigh... then yeah, OK, some might find that useful,.. but coincidentally? The main POINT, of a duplicates manager/handler, should be for the VARIETY of reasons and needs, different people will be needing to do DIFFERENT, things, while doing that. i didn't ... i only needed to leave 1-of-everything ... but i also couldn't do that.
Essentially, the extras did not compensate for not being able to filter , sort, etc, nor select-all , nor in my case, select-all-but-1

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18894841, 6 days agoIt's slow down so much it makes frozen the app. It's waited for10 minutes without any response. It's just about 16000 -24000 bookmarks to process, certainly from several bookmarks from different times.
Interesting fact is the same addon from the same author works perfectly!!! ..in chrome based browsers(time to response fast to not:chrome,brave,vivaldi). - Rated 4 out of 5by F33klochT, 21 days ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Gilby, a year agoThe only thing I learned about this add-on is that it lives up to its name. (itwillnotbeeasy) Installed, adjusted settings, and nothing. No start, go, launch, proceed, remove, engage, button to do anything. Uninstalled, reinstalled, used defaults, still nothing. No way to make it work. PLEASE HELP

posted a year agoTo launch the extension, you need to click on the puzzle icon in the top right corner of the Firefox window and then click on 'Bookmarks clean up'. - Rated 3 out of 5by Gitesh A., a year agoWorks well, but a search functionality would be great for those who have thousands of duplicates, like me :(
- Rated 5 out of 5by Simple TTS "Text to Speech" Reader, a year agoFantastic Extension and Exactly what I needed!
- Rated 3 out of 5by Wyrdling, a year agoDoes what it says pretty well. Strange choice to not include a 'Select all' for the duplicate finder, but you do for broken URLs. I get you want us to keep one item remaining, but what if I don't want any of them to remain? As someone who needed to manage close to 5000 bookmarks, this did well enough.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13156335, a year ago(Updated) Seems to work well. Rather difficult to find how to run it though. Perhaps the dev could add the instructions to the 'Description' or 'About this extension'?
