  1. Can you add Search settings to Find Duplicates by Tags or File Name
  2. find Duplicates which have added number (1)

Duplicates by file name seems like a good idea and easy to implement (if looking at identical filenames). I'll look into some fuzzy similarity search (so if only a few characters are different it still matches). 👍 The easiest thing may be to have the code look if the first 90% of the filename matches - and then show the files as duplicates (this would handle the (1) case you describe)

By "tags" it's unclear to me how that would work. FYI: manual tags are what a user added manually, and auto tags are simply each word in the file name converted to a "tag".

I see a reason why having (1) in the filename would be a possible duplicate (OS or some software auto-adds (1)) - but this is a rather unique use case ... unsure if I'd want to figure out how to get it to work well.
