Treesize

TreeSize is another popular option. It has a clickable Treemap that’s off by default; instead, you start with a folder tree with a built-in bar graph, like the top pane in WinDirStat. Since TreeSize holds file information of scanned directory structures in your system RAM, the theoretically maxiumum disk size that can be scanned or searched by TreeSize is only limited by your systems memory. You can reduce the memory consumption by turning off the statistics for users, file types of age of files at 'Tools Options Scan'. TreeSize Free is a utility that scans your hard drive and shows you how much hard drive space each folder on the particular partition is using. It is not uncommon to run out of space on a hard.

Retrieves storage space data for a user-defined location, enabling you to view which files and folders have large sizes and delete unneeded ones to free up space

What's new in Portable TreeSize Free 4.4.2.514:

  • The installation of TreeSize Free under Windows Vista and Server 2008 now works again as expected.
  • A possible error when deleting files was fixed.
  • An error that could occur under very special conditions when scanning local drives as administrator was fixed.
  • A rare error when stopping a running scan was fixed.
Read the full changelog

Portable TreeSize Free is an application that displays the files and folders which take up the most disk space on your hard drive.

Since this is a portable product, installation is not required. So, you can place TreeSize on an external device and run it on any computer.

What is more important is the fact that your Windows registry keys will not be changed.

The interface of the program is plain and simple. You can select a directory or volume and initiate the scanning process.

Folders will be immediately displayed in a descending order, according to their size.

If you hover your mouse, you can check out their CD/DVD size, permissions, size, total folders, attributes, owner, last date of modification, and more.

Additionally, you can refresh the list, create a new instance, as well as switch to a different viewing mode (e.g. size, allocated space, parent, file count, compression rate).

Moreover, you can expand folders (from level 1 through 6 or full expand), select a color for the size indicator in the background of the folders, set a file filter, scan with one thread only, and more.

The application uses a moderate amount of system resources and didn't freeze, crash or pop up errors during our tests. Since it is extremely easy to use by beginners, we strongly recommend Portable TreeSize Free to all users.

Description

Every hard disk is too small if you just wait long enough. TreeSize Free tells you where precious disk space has gone. TreeSize Free shows you the size of and drive or folder, including its subfolders. Expand folders in an Explorer-like fashion and see the size of every subfolder. All results can also be drilled down to the file level. Scanning operations run in a thread, so you can already see results while TreeSize Free is working. The disk space tool now also includes the main feature of our discontinued freeware NTFSRatio: TreeSize Free can display the NTFS compression rate and apply the NTFS compression on directory branches.
