My sincere apologies to all who have responded to date. I thought I knew what I was doing, but I did not really understand SHA256 and other features of Everything. In particular I fell afoul of my life-long cautions about the use of the term "duplicate".
I shall spend part of this Christmas break setting up TWO more sets of files:-
(1) my current 20,000 tracks which play on my jukebox 24/7 and
(2) my accumulated weekly backup of, perhaps, 30,000 tracks, whose greater number results in part from repeated downloads, and sometimes by moving folders around.
That is, duplicates will have arisen as genuinely innocent acts on my part; I am not looking for carefully-constructed examples to thwart Everything.
Thanks again, Chris

@VOID you are correct, those two pairs of files are indeed identical in content"Shostakovich - Symphony No 05"... and "05- Why was I born"... have the same content.
"J. S. Bach Trio Sonata BWV 1039"... and "Bruckner - Symphony No.7"... have the same content.
Thanks again, Chris
