What we collect
The guide pages do not require accounts or forms unless a later config adds them. Cloudflare may provide standard platform logs and optional cookieless Web Analytics when enabled.
Fonts and scripts
Fonts are self-hosted with the site build when the template ships them that way. Third-party installers are not injected into the page body.
Outbound downloads
When you install Krokiet, your client talks to GitHub or Microsoft winget services. Those parties have their own privacy policies.

Keeping a duplicate file finder install calm
A calm duplicate file finder install on Windows starts with one door: winget id qarmin.krokiet or the current windows_krokiet_on_windows_skia_opengl.exe from GitHub Releases. Finish that door before you open a second mirror. When Krokiet appears, pick a short folder you already trust and run one scan so the duplicate file finder path is proven on the machine you control.
Prefer the same door for the next update. Catalog lag can trail a fresh upload on qarmin/czkawka, so public copy says the current release rather than a dotted pin. Related routes stay on releases, GitHub overview, download-safe, vs Auslogics, delete, photo, and the Windows install walkthrough for this duplicate file finder cluster.
Local folders for a duplicate file finder job
After install, a duplicate file finder job keeps matches on disk. Open Krokiet, include Downloads or a camera export, and review groups before delete. Move or delete only what you confirm for a finished duplicate file finder handoff.
Skip random upload tabs when libraries are sensitive. Official GitHub Releases and winget remain the fetch doors. qarmin/czkawka is the source mirror and the Windows exe host for this duplicate file finder path.
When SmartScreen interrupts a duplicate file finder setup
SmartScreen may warn on a freshly downloaded portable exe. Prefer GitHub Releases or winget so the duplicate file finder file matches upstream. Stop if a blog asks you to disable protections for an unknown publisher before the official package arrives.
If launch fails after a clean install, confirm Start shows Krokiet, reopen once, and avoid stacking a second renamed installer. First-hour notes and safety guides deepen that duplicate file finder checklist.
Official doors and calm verification
Confirm App Installer from Microsoft when the package manager command is missing. Reopen Terminal after App Installer lands, then retry the documented line. Checksums, when published, live next to assets on GitHub Releases. Read LICENSE on the project repo before you redistribute a modified build under GPL terms.
When a catalog tag trails a fresh upload, public copy still says the current release rather than inventing digits. Prefer one install door per PC so Start Menu shortcuts stay predictable after the next upgrade. Softonic-style wrappers that rename the setup remain the wrong door even when search ads look convenient.
Keep personal libraries off shared lab PCs when you can. Treat the first hour as proof that Krokiet launches and that a short folder scan returns matches you recognize before you touch a whole archive drive.
