Duplicirane^(Duplicate) datoteke mogu uzrokovati prijetnju ako ste redoviti korisnik usluga za pohranu u oblaku kao što su Google Drive ili One Drive . Google disk^{(Google Drive)} vam omogućuje spremanje, prijenos, pristup ili izmjenu datoteka s bilo kojeg uređaja, odnosno vašeg telefona, tableta ili računala. Nudi ograničen prostor, a duplicirane datoteke mogu dodatno smanjiti kapacitet pohrane. Dupliciranje datoteka događa se s vremena na vrijeme, posebno kada je uključena sinkronizacija na brojnim uređajima. Međutim, kada imate veliki broj datoteka, lociranje tih duplikata može biti teško i dugotrajno. Danas ćemo raspravljati o tome kako pronaći i zatim ukloniti duple datoteke na Google disku^{(Google Drive)} .

Kako ukloniti duplicirane datoteke iz pohrane u oblaku Google diska^{(How to Remove Duplicate Files from Google Drive Cloud Storage)}

Možete se odlučiti za pohranu u oblaku na Google disku^{(Google Drive)} jer:

• Štedi prostor^{(Saves Space)} – Danas^(Nowadays) datoteke i aplikacije zauzimaju većinu prostora za pohranu uređaja zbog svoje velike veličine. Stoga, kako biste izbjegli problem s malom pohranom na svom uređaju, umjesto toga možete koristiti pohranu u oblaku.
• Omogućuje ^(Provides) jednostavan pristup^{(Easy Access)} – nakon što je datoteka učitana u oblak, tada joj možete pristupiti bilo gdje i/ili bilo kada. Trebat će vam samo aktivna internetska veza.
• Pomaže u ^{(Assists in)} brzom dijeljenju^{(Quick Sharing)} – Google Drive Cloud Storage omogućuje korisnicima da dijele veze datoteka s drugim ljudima. Na taj način možete dijeliti više datoteka na mreži i time olakšati proces suradnje. Na primjer, veliki broj fotografija i videa putovanja može se lako i brzo podijeliti.
• Čuva podatke sigurnima^{(Keeps the Data Safe )} – čuva vaše važne podatke sigurnima i zaštićenima od zlonamjernog softvera ili virusa.
• Upravlja datotekama^{(Manages Files)} – pohrana u oblaku na Google Driveu^{(Google Drive)} pomaže u praćenju datoteka i kronološki ih slaže.

Ali postoje i određena ograničenja ovog objekta za pohranu u oblaku.

• Pohrana u oblaku na Google disku^{(Google Drive)} omogućuje vam besplatno pohranjivanje do samo 15 GB^{(only 15 GB for free)} .
• Za više prostora za pohranu u oblaku morate platiti i nadograditi na Google One^{( pay & upgrade to Google One)} .

Stoga postaje još važnije koristiti pohranu na Google disku^{(Google Drive)} mudro i ekonomično.

Zašto se pojavljuje problem s dupliranim datotekama Google diska?^{(Why Google Drive Duplicate Files Problem Occurs?)}

Ovaj problem može nastati iz raznih razloga, kao što su:

• Kada više osoba^{(multiple people)} ima pristup Disku^(Drive) , mogu prenijeti kopije istog dokumenta.
• Slično, možete greškom prenijeti više kopija^{(mistakenly upload multiple copies)} iste datoteke, a tada ćete se suočiti s navedenim problemom.

Kako pronaći duplicirane datoteke na Google disku^{(How to Find Duplicate Files in Google Drive)}

Postoje različiti načini za pronalaženje dupliciranih datoteka kao što je objašnjeno u ovom odjeljku.

Google disk^{(Google Drive)} automatski dodaje brojeve u nazive dupliciranih datoteka dok ih prenosi. Duplicirane datoteke možete pronaći traženjem brojeva^{(searching for numbers)} u traci za pretraživanje, kao što je prikazano u nastavku.

Metoda 3: Koristite dodatak za traženje dupliciranih datoteka^{(Method 3: Use Duplicate File Finder Add-in)}

Dodatak Duplicate File Finder^{(Duplicate File Finder Add-in)} pomoći će vam da pronađete duplicirane datoteke na Google disku^{(Google Drive)} , kako slijedi:

1. Instalirajte ^(Install) Duplicate File Finder s Chrome Workspace Marketplacea^{(Chrome Workspace Marketplace)} , kao što je prikazano.

2. Idite na Google disk^{(Google Drive)} . Kliknite na ikonu Google Apps^{(Google Apps icon)} , a zatim odaberite Duplicate File Finder .

Metoda 3: Koristite aplikaciju Files by Google za Android^{(Method 3: Use Files by Google Android App)}

Ako koristite svoj telefon, duplikate možete izbrisati pomoću aplikacije Files by Google . Problem s ovom značajkom je, međutim, što nije uvijek pouzdana i učinkovita jer se aplikacija uglavnom fokusira na internu pohranu, a ne na pohranu u oblaku.

Kako spriječiti Google Drive od dupliciranja datoteka^{(How to Prevent Google Drive From Duplicating Files)}

Budući da je bolje spriječiti nego liječiti, raspravimo kako izbjeći dupliciranje datoteka.

Metoda 1: Nemojte prenositi kopije iste datoteke
^{(Method 1: Do Not Upload Copies of Same File )}

Ovo je česta greška koju čine ljudi. Stalno ponovno učitavaju datoteke što stvara duple kopije. Izbjegavajte to i provjerite svoj pogon prije nego što nešto učitate.

Metoda 2: poništite izbor izvanmrežnih postavki na Google disku ^{(Method 2: Uncheck Offline Settings in Google Drive )}
