If you see two photos exactly alike in your folders (the yellow folder icons) then, odds are they are duplicates, and you should delete one. If you see duplicates in your 'Albums' - the blue book icons) they are not duplicates. The way to know for sure is to see where exactly they are on your disk. Just right-click and choose 'locate on disk'.

Loved every minute. Had Picasa downloaded, had never used it. Question: Are ALL those pictures - repeated as they seem to be - on my computer all those times as they seem to somehow get into different folders and files I didnt think I put them in? Does that 'clog up' the performance of my computer? I thought Picasa was easy to use, my new PC has a picture thing of its own, so does my new printer - now what? Keep this info coming, love it.

I have a complication which I am reluctant to fix on my own. Recently my photos have started appearing out of order often from other folders, with different pix showing when I select them. Picasa's Troubleshooting questions suggest that the Data Base needs repairing. The "fix" instructions include a preliminary Back Up process which for me is rather complicated. Since I have thousands of edited pix in many folders, and don't want to loose them, I need some advice. Perhaps you could address this. Thanks, Judy I learn from all your tips.
