Just an FYI, for anyone, (like me), who has been neglecting this... 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In order to remove duplicates please do the following:

 1) In the Source List, select Conflicts.

If Conflicts is not available yet you can customize the Source List:
- In the View menu, click Configure Source List.
- The following dialog appears:
 Select the areas that you want to display in the Source List
-   enable conflicts

2) In the Conflict pop-up menu, click Duplicates:
3) Use the checkboxes to select one or more font types contained multiple times on the
computer.
4) In each case, select which version of a font you want to keep.
5) Do one of the following:
? Select the Replace removed duplicates in Sets with remaining font
checkbox if you want the remaining font to take the place of the removed fonts in all
Sets.
? Select the checkbox Move files of removed duplicates to trash if you want
to delete the removed fonts.
6) From the Select pop-up menu, choose for which type of duplicate the selection
shall apply.

 If the same fonts are contained in two or more folders, e. g. because they were copied to
another storage location, you can facilitate the selection: To this purpose, select the Invert
preselected versions option. The next entry in the Set will be selected. A dot marks the
font that is to be removed. 

7) Click Resolve duplicates.

Nice one frailer. It looks a little different in my old FEX, ie...FREE, but it seems to work about the same way.
