Default Filtering unique combinations of cells

Another play using autofilter on a helper col

In G2:
=IF(COUNTA(D2:F2)<3,"",IF(SUMPRODUCT((D$2:D2=D2)*( E$2:E2=E2)*(F$2:F2=F2))1,"","x"))
Copy G2 down to cover the max expected extent of data. Col G will flag
unique combinations with "x". Apply autofilter on col G, choose: x to filter
out the lot, on demand.
