Dear Muhammad,

Good day, thanks for querying in this forum, we’re happy to help you.

From your description, it seems that you want to find duplicate files in SharePoint on Mac.

If my understanding is right, we’d suggest you go to SharePoint site > use Search box insider SharePoint site, then you can search the similar file name or content in the files, then it will appear the related files, as shown below:

If the scenario above is not consistent with yours, you can also post back and provide more details about your requirement. May I know if you want to find duplicated files from OneDrive sync client?

Thanks for your cooperation.

Sincerely，

I may have got what I want using keyword "duplicate", thank you. But I think you may need to feature duplicate files on search so that the others can get what they want. Once again thank you
