Windows Repair Toolbox
No, but BleachBit is: https://www.bleachbit.org/
Especially when you make your own cleaners [0][1], which you can also can selectively invoke via the command line (and of course do that via schedule / cron etc.)

Just moved from POP3 to IMAP, but IMAP is very laggy and slow? Possible fix?
I don't know 'all of the underlying technology' but as a little 'maintenance exercise' under the top line file there is an option, "Compact Folders" - you can do them individually but I do it first I clean out my 'trash', then I compact. Although I am on Linux and there is no 'defrag', it probably would not help to compact them. Also, FYI, https://www.bleachbit.org/ program for Windows, Linux, etc. has an option to VACUUM (essentially to tighten up the SQLITE files - databases, I think.) If you are doing Thunderbird I would not let it do anything but the vacuum option (note Thunderbird uses an Mbox file system) but I think the option is still called vacuum in Bleachbit for simplicity sake) until you knew what it was doing, but Firefox also uses SQLITE files and you can vacuum those - for that program I let it wipe everything and just select every box depending if I am running as root-superuser-admin or not.) If you just converted from one .... perhaps everything is spread across your drive. NOTE: if your drive is a SSD you are NOT supposed to have to, nor is it suggested that you defrag (or do similar actions) to your drive to preserve the life of the SSD. In which case you might want to understand the difference between 'compact' and defrag. Please do appropriate research on all issues.

fdupes: Identify or Delete Duplicate Files
I've used Czkawka (https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka) because it does Lanczos-based image duplicate detection, which makes it more practical for me.

PhotoPrism: Browse Your Life in Pictures
I used to use DupeGuru which has some photo-specific dupe detection where you can fuzzy match image dupes based on content: https://dupeguru.voltaicideas.net/
But I switched over to czkawka, which has a better interface for comparing files, and seems to be a bit faster: https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka
Unfortunately, neither of these are integrated into Photoprism, so you still have to do some file management outside the database before importing.
I also haven't used Photoprism extensively yet (I think it's running on one of my boxes, but I haven't gotten around to setting it up), but I did find that it wasn't really built for file-based libraries. It's a little more heavyweight, but my research shows that Nextcloud Memories might be a better choice for me (it's not the first-party Nextcloud photos app, but another one put together by the community): https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/memories

Please don't post like 20 similar images to the art sites?
Czkawka can do this.

I'm amazed how I find anything & why I have so many dupes!
There's always the well-respected tool, Czkawka. Or, of the CLI is your thing, jdupes is a good option.

Anyone know of any good file deduplication tools?
It's post-process scheduled deduplication. Also, there's czkawka: https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka

A duplicate file finder with GUI written using gtk4-rs and relm4
Nice, looks very clean. Are you aware of czkawka? That's a fairly advanced duplicate finder, also written in rust and also using gtk4: https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka

Using hash to compare files
On the topic of file deduplication, the is Czkawka, a program made by a fellow Pole that I have used couple of times. Even if you want to continue with your project, you can get some inspiration on how they did that.
