  • Merging two Lightroom catalogs.
  • We shoot in RAW+JPEG mode and save the file in both formats.
  •  When we export the image to another editor, such as Photoshop, Lightroom automatically creates a duplicate copy of the picture.
  • Don’t import suspected duplicates setting is disabled.
  • The same image is saved in different resolutions.

  • Click on the photo you want to delete.

This is how you can get a duplicate free library for Lightroom.

How To Delete Duplicate from Lightroom

The unwanted images saved in Lightroom can be deleted manually or using a third-party tool like Duplicate Photos Fixer Pro. However, if neither of these methods suits you, try using plugins like Teekesselchen or Lightroom Duplicate Finder. With the help of these plugins, you can smartly find and remove duplicate images.

Teekeesselchen is a free plugin that uses EXIF data to look for duplicates. You need to unzip the installer version and the plugin file to get it. Click the File menu in Adobe Lightroom > select Plug-in Manager.

Delete Duplicate Photos

You will see Lightroom Plugin Manager > click Add button > browse and locate unzipped plugin file > go to Library > Plug-in Extras <> Find Duplicates.

his is how using Teekesselchen; you can find duplicates.

Alternatively, you can try Lightroom Duplicate Finder. However, remember it will cost you around $15. So, if you want a freeway, Teekesselchen is best.

You can use either of these methods to remove duplicate photos from Lightroom. Please let us know which way you choose and why in the comments section.
