A Chrome extension that prevents duplicate downloads

In plain words

This Chrome extension automatically prevents duplicate file downloads by detecting when a user attempts to download a file that already exists on their computer. It's designed for anyone who frequently downloads files and wants to avoid cluttering their device with multiple copies. The tool works silently in the background, checking downloads against existing files before completion.
