PowerPhotos will create an album named “PowerPhotos duplicate trash” in your Photos library and populate it with all the photos that have been marked to be trashed.

On earlier versions of macOS, Photos does not provide a mechanism for PowerPhotos to directly delete the duplicate photos that it has found, so the final step of deletion must be performed manually. If your duplicate search spans multiple libraries (let’s call them “Library A” and “Library B”), then if the photo being trashed is in library A, and the keeper is in library B, then any albums in library A that contained the trashed photo will not have the photo be replaced. Note that this option only applies when the trashed photo and the keeper belong to the same library. ![]() The end result is that all your albums will remain intact with the same number of photos even after doing your duplicate deletion. Deleting the photos will also remove those photos from their albums, but with this option enabled, PowerPhotos will replace each deleted photo with the corresponding keeper photo from the same duplicate group. When deleting photos from your library, it’s possible that some of those photos currently belong to one or more albums in that library. You will see an additional confirmation warning displayed by macOS before the deletion is finalized. PowerPhotos can directly delete the duplicate photos from your library for you, so there are no additional steps you need to take. You can specify how to deal with your duplicate photos in the “Options” section at the bottom of the window.ĭelete duplicate photos (requires macOS 10.15) Once you’ve finished choosing which photos to keep and which to trash, click the “Trash Duplicates” button in the upper right corner to get rid of your duplicate photos. ![]()
