Folder Size is a free disk space analyzer for Windows designed to help users quickly identify which folders and files are consuming the most storage on their drives. Addressing the limitation of Windows Explorer, which does not display folder sizes by default, Folder Size offers immediate visibility into disk usage, allowing users to view and sort the sizes of all folders and files on any drive or network location. This capability streamlines the process of managing storage, making it easier to clean up space, organize files, and maintain system performance.
The tool provides several visualization options, including bar and pie charts, to represent disk usage and storage distribution clearly. Users can generate sortable reports listing the largest files and folders, view folder and file sizes as a percentage of the total drive, and see additional details such as file count, subfolder count, creation time, last modification time, last access time, and folder owner. Folder Size is compatible with a wide range of storage types, including local drives, external hard drives, USB flash drives, SD cards, NAS devices, SAN storage, and network shares. It can also display the sizes of backup folders, system folders, hidden folders, and the System Volume Information folder, offering a comprehensive view of disk usage, including areas typically hidden by Windows.
Folder Size integrates with Windows File Explorer via a right-click context menu, enabling users to analyze folder sizes for any directory and its subfolders directly from Explorer. The tool is designed to be lightweight, using system resources only when it is actively running and avoiding the installation of services, file hooks, or shell extensions, which helps prevent any impact on system performance when idle. 1, 8, and 7, for both 32-bit and 64-bit systems.
