When i up graded to 14, all of my media files seem to have been duplicated. How can i use MC to automatically find and remove duplicates.

That would depend on how it ended up that way.

Are the duplicated files imported for the exact same file path, or are they imported from 2 that "point" to the same files? For example a network drive that actually points back to you local hard drive. In that case you could access the files via M:\<path>\<filename> or C:\<path>\<filename>.

Thats one scenario that I see as possible, but there are probably others. You'll have to provide some more details about what exactly you did to end up that way and what your setup is so we can help.
