Search for duplicate documents

When you save a second copy of something, OS will append a (1) or -1 after it and increment it for additional compamnies.


How can I search for them. OS will not allow me to search for "(1)" or -1.

(I would prefer (N) OR -N.)


I CAN have Finder list every document alphabetically, and find scan them, but too much work for these old eyes.



MacBook Air 13″, macOS 13.4

Try this free app. It works great and will let you drill down more to what you're trying to search:
