How to find and remove duplicate photos on Mac using Tahoe 26.1?

I asm trying to remove duplicate photos on my laptop. I am using Tahoe 26.1 but cannot find utilities and therefore duplicates. Any suggestions please.

Open Photos → in the left sidebar, scroll down to the section labeled:

📌 Library → Duplicates

This replaces the old “Utilities → Duplicates” location from earlier macOS versions.

If you see Duplicates, click it and Photos will automatically show all detected duplicates and allow you to:

  • Merge
  • Keep the best version
  • Combine metadata

No extra tools required.
