Hi @Downline32,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
If you have two "I.R.I.S OCR" files on your HP computer, it means you have scanned documents converted into editable text using IRIS optical character recognition (OCR) technology.
If you don’t need both, you can safely remove the older one and keep only the most recent file on your device. Feel free to delete whichever one you don’t need, and let me know how it goes—I’m happy to assist if you need further help!
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.

Just ran Duplicate Files Deleter on my PC to clean up old music and photo folders. It did a decent job finding exact duplicates, but I wish it had more filtering options like skipping system folders or previewing files before deleting.
