Powershell command to delete duplicate fils and folders

all,

i had restore data , created duplicates name [1] , [2] within folder , file structure.  i'm curious if can offer advice how can search , find these files , folders?

i tried regular search expression [1] found files 1 in them.

i tried powershell command no luck - get-childitem -recurse | select-string -pattern "[*]" | group path | select name

any appreciated!

in example pattern regex , [ , ] special characters.  this worked me:

get-childitem c:\temp -filter "*[*]*" -recurse | remove-item

but nuclear option, might want replace remove-item select fullname so can review removed before removing it.
