How can I compare 2 models to find the differences?

I am wondering how to compare two models to find the differences with something like winmerge? I noticed from one save to another the size jumped from 8 mb to 30 mb and I can't remember what I had changed that far back.

Hi, if you have performed an experiment and have the 'save dashboard data' switched on, it can create a large model file as results of the experiment will be saved as well.

The first place I would look is in the model's "packedmedia" a change in file size that large, seems very likely that you imported a 3D shape or image of some kind. But yeah you can use winmerge as well. Just make sure you export the project as XML first.

Unfortunately we have not imported any shapes or images and there is nothing in the packedmedia. Winmerge didn't shed any light either.
