Did you know the more "stuff" you have on your computer, the slower it can run? Embroidery design files can take up a lot of space on your computer. If you have multiple copies of the same design, the Embroidery DeDuper can clean your computer right up! This inexpensive program identifies and eliminates all the duplicate designs that you have lurking around your computer. This is especially good for owners of multiple brands of embroidery machines—you know who you are!

I have to confess, I'm guilty of saving the same embroidery design in Viking format, Pfaff format, and Janome format—I end up using lots of space on my computer for three copies of the same design! Tidy up your computer with this clever little program!

In just seconds this program will unzip and clean up recent downloads also, which is a feature I use daily now that I have cleaned up my files. I highly recommend it for us all and hope everyone will give it a try! Posted: 12:39 pm on July 22nd
