Hey Dear Hope

For your issue of removing duplicate articles, I think it's not removed rather it has been saved with another name.

Follow these steps might be helpful for you

In Mendeley Desktop, select the folder which you’d like to search for duplicates. It can be “All Documents”, a specific folder, or even a sub-folder.

Go to your Tools menu and select Deduplication tool.

You will see a listing of the duplicates found (if any!). Select the one you’d like to examine and notice the checkboxes next to the document details in the right-hand panel.

Select the details that you would like to keep from each of the documents.

Click merge to stay with one only merged entry containing the complete document details in your library only once.

Here's the link to videos for the steps, check them.

I don't think there is an automatic deletion. You can delete manually after you make a search in your Mendely library and discover the duplicates through using title's key words for the search. Good luck.
