I have imported my tree from a Gedcom. The problem is when I go to all images I have duplicates. Could someone please tell me how to delete these duplicates.
Thank you.

I have moved this to the
Importing and Exporting Forum that is more appropriate.
Is this in any way related to your other two postings
Transferring files from one computer to another. (15898) and
Import Gedcom from RM7 (15899) to which you have not responded?
Since deletion is not reversible, it would be better to understand exactly what is happening.
I suspect you are using the camera icon
View Media > View All Media that to be precise shows
Media records not image files.
Where did the
GEDCOM come from, and exactly how did you import it?
Did you use the
File > Project Window > New Project command?
However, if you are sure what you want to delete, then how_to:delete_a_large_number_of_records|> Delete Any Number of Records explains the options. Since you are deleting
Media records, that may leave orphaned media image files, so run the
Check for Unlinked Media Plugin.

I would have been more reassuring if you had answered my questions.
So if you delete the wrong items don't blame me!
