I have a large number of duplicate files which were created by Rename, Move & Copy files. They all end in (#).mp3, where # is a digit (or digits).

Searching for ).mp3 doesn't work because ) is a special character. Escaping it with a / or \ doesn't help.

Is there any way to generate a list of these files so I can delete them?

Using the Search Wizard and entering:

Filename contains ).mp3

should accomplish what you want (unless you have other files with filename ending with ).mp3

Thank you. That did the trick (and let me purge 15GB of dupes!).

I'm not a wizard sort of guy, so wouldn't have found this. And the result of the wizard showed me the way to get it with text entry... [Filename]="/).mp3".

I had tried quoting the search argument and escaping the right paren, but not in combination. Doh!
