How to remove duplicate photos?

The MCH Photos displays most of my photos twice.

How do I fix it to only display them once?

I tried deleting the folder with the photo files, but that did not do it.

I have done the recent update that fixed duplicating the photos, but now I need a fix to remove the photos that had been duplicated.

@KayakRBill Assuming Android Mobile Phone Auto Backup, the only way to remove a duplicate photo is to manually delete it.

I have an iPhone.

Update…after deleting the File folder on the MCH, and after an extended period of time, the duplicate displays went aWAY.

Will the problem return once the folder gets backed up again?

@KayakRBill
What iPhone?
What version of iOS?
What My Cloud Home Mobile App Version?
What are the auto backup settings?

Please open a case with support and provide the iOS Mobile app logs and let us know the email address used for MyCloud.com login.

… Should I “reboot” , pull the plug and start over? When I worked in support, that is what we had many people do. Never mind.

.fyi, once the photo library was automatically backed up, the duplicate display of photos returned. It should be noted only photos that existed prior to the latest firmware update are duplicated.

Note that when I DELETED the photo library FOLDER, The photos only displayed once!

Makes me question WHERE were the photos were being displayed from? There was nothing I had on the MCH that had the photos.
