Have you ever wondered how many files there are in your Koofr account? Do you have lots and lots of duplicate files but do not know how to get rid of them? Or have you been wanting to free up some space but you do not know which files take up the most of it in your account? Koofr EXP can help you do that.

(1) What is Koofr EXP?


While there are some features of Koofr that are widely known, like the different Koofr apps you can use or the option to connect existing cloud accounts to Koofr, there are quite a few hidden gems that do not get enough recognition. We are here to correct that, starting with Koofr EXP.

Koofr exp - all tools

Think of Koofr EXP as a result of ideas for different tools that our developers get when trying to improve Koofr. It is something additional we want to offer and it doesn't always fit into the concept of Koofr cloud storage as you know it. This is why we thought of offering these tools separately, as a part of Koofr EXP.

(2) Koofr Duplicate File Finder


With Koofr duplicate file finder you can easily find and remove the duplicate files from your Koofr account.

You can easily choose to select all the older or all the newer versions of files in every group of results or for the complete results list, making large finds easier to manage.
