How to Find Duplicates in Excel
It is usually safer to find duplicates before removing them. Highlighting repeats helps you confirm what Excel considers a duplicate for your chosen rules.
Highlight duplicates with Conditional Formatting
- Select the range you want to check (a single column is common).
- Go to Home → Conditional Formatting → Highlight Cells Rules → Duplicate Values.
- Choose a style and click OK.

Find duplicates across multiple columns
For row-level duplicates, create a helper column that concatenates key fields (or use a formula that counts repeated combinations), then apply formatting or filter.
Use a formula to flag duplicates
Functions like COUNTIF can mark rows where values appear more than once. For example, in a helper column, count how often a key appears in the full range and filter where the count is greater than one.
Microsoft 365 shortcut
In newer Excel, you can sometimes leverage dynamic array functions to list or filter duplicates non-destructively, depending on your layout.
