Thank you for the reply. Since it sounds like the items that you're seeing are not exact duplicates, it's expected behaviour that the duplicates tool in Watchtower isn't detecting them. To protect against data loss, items have to be in the same vault and exactly the same (down to the metadata) in order to be identified as a duplicate.
I've passed along your feedback that you'd like to see the duplicate remover tool be expanded in the future to our product team. For the time being, manually going through the items is the best option. You can tag all of your items with a "TO AUDIT" tag and then remove that tag from each item after you've checked for duplicates for that item. I'm sorry that there isn't a more elegant solution at this time.
As requested, I'm closing this thread. Thank you again for the feedback. 🙂
