Hey! Im looking for a way or a software that can compare two files and find similarities between them.

Say I have two files with lists of names in them, I want to know which names are in both files.

All I have found is software that find differences, not similarities.

Thanks!

Are you looking for freeware? I know only one software which does what you want, but it's not free....

I actually need it for works so as long as its not crazy expensive it would be fine.

I had used an application which compares two file and find the matching file withint your HDD. Are you looking for such application which shows you the similar files in you HDD? If yes then this is one application that I came across "DizzyDiff".
