Sysinfo vCard Duplicate Remover

SysInfo vCard Duplicate Remover is a utility designed to identify and remove duplicate contacts from vCard (VCF) and CSV files. It helps users organize contact records by detecting repeated entries based on selected contact fields, including names, phone numbers, and email addresses.

The software supports vCard versions 2.1, 3.0, and 4.0. Users can add a single VCF file, multiple VCF files, or an entire folder containing VCF files. It also supports removing duplicate contacts from CSV files. This makes it useful when contact information is collected from different devices, applications, or exported address books and needs to be consolidated.

Duplicate detection can be performed across all available fields or limited to specific fields. Users can select criteria such as first name, last name, email address, and phone number to identify repeated contacts according to their requirements. The tool also provides options for saving contacts based on first name, last name, email address, phone number, or the vCard file name.

After removing duplicates, users can choose the option to create a single VCF file, which combines contacts into one file. This can help simplify contact management when information is spread across several vCard files. The software is designed to preserve contact data integrity and maintain the file and folder hierarchy during processing.

Users can choose matching fields before saving the cleaned contacts. The application includes a graphical user interface intended for both technical and non-technical users. Its workflow involves installing and launching the software, adding VCF files or a folder, selecting duplicate-removal filters and saving options, choosing an output location, and processing the contacts. A log report is generated after the operation. It includes details such as the number of duplicate contacts detected and removed, the file path, and the process status.
