Frequently Asked Questions

The tool scans each line and keeps only the first occurrence of each unique line. Duplicates are identified and removed while preserving the original order of the remaining lines.
By default, the tool is case-insensitive ('Apple' equals 'apple'). Enable 'Case sensitive' to treat different cases as unique lines.
By default yes - empty lines are treated as duplicates of each other and only one is kept. You can disable this with 'Keep empty lines' option.
The tool shows statistics including the count of removed duplicates. The 'Show duplicates only' mode lets you see what was removed instead of the unique lines.
Yes, the tool preserves the order of first occurrence. The first time a unique line appears, it stays in that position. Only subsequent duplicate appearances are removed.
