how to delete duplicate songs

Hi ivcruz,

If you want to delete duplicate songs in iTunes in Windows, please check out this link, which explains how to find and manage duplicate items, and will help guide you through the process: Find items and duplicates in iTunes on PC

Find duplicates

You can find every instance of a song by the same artist anywhere in your iTunes library. For example, the same song could appear on the artist’s album and on a movie soundtrack.

You can also search for exact duplicates, in which the song, artist, album, and version are all the same (if, for example, you inadvertently imported the song twice).

Note: You can find duplicates for songs, movies, TV shows, and audiobooks.

1. In the iTunes app  on your PC, choose an option (Music or Movies, for example) from the pop-up menu at the top left, then click Library.

2. Select an item, then do one of the following:

* Find every instance of that item in your library: Choose File > Library > Show Duplicate Items.

* Find exact duplicates: Hold down the Shift key, then choose File > Library > Show Exact Duplicate Items.

After you find duplicate items, you can delete them if you want to declutter your library.

To see all items again, click Done in the top-right corner or choose File > Library > Show All Items.

Thanks!

Please see Duplicate songs in iTunes - Apple Community.

The article referenced above omits a key detail, in that when showing duplicates all copies of a duplicated/triplicated/etc. song are shown, not just the excess copies. If you select and delete all of the duplicates there will be no original versions of those songs left.
