Disk space usage

What is necessary for convenient disk space usage? The information about all computer disk structure is. About how folders and files are allocated on levels, what disk space they occupy and in what directories they enter. Everything what is needed for this - to take advantage of a Moleskinsoft - program Directory Size.

Apparently from the program name its overall objective is granting to the user of the information on the sizes and other directory properties i.e. about disk space usage. Here also concern directory "stuffing" - files and folders included in the directory, their sizes in bytes and percents.

To imagine principles of program work for disk space usage research better we’ll take an example.

For example you need to find out about disk space usage on D drive namely about any folder. The folder is named "Programs" for example and keeps various programs and utilities. To scan a folder press “scan folder” of control panels and choose a folder from the offered tree. For few seconds Directory Size will scan your folder and give out the result. For example 15 folders are kept in your folder with programs and 2 more files. They will be shown in a right program window. On each element there are submitted a size, percents of directory size, amount of files and folders of lower level (for folders). The data are represented in decreasing order on the size, but you can sort them as you want. Below there is a graphic representation of the received results as a diagram.

Having pressed on any folder you will see structural distribution of files and folders. Further the work circuit is identical. The program gives an opportunity to filter the data (the button "filter"). You can filter by an extension, certain size or file owner. Accordingly at distribution reception many folders will have zero value if there are no filtered files in them. For example you want to know about the cumulative size of files with exe extension in the "Program" folder. For this you should put in filter mask *.exe and scan the folder. Directory Size will show you disk space usage for exe files in all directory folders in decreasing order.

The received results can be kept in separate html- or txt-document. This function is useful if there is a necessity to make the printed report on the disk space structure.

For "features" fans there is option “top 100” - of files, folders and extensions. The top shows a size distribution.

Separate pleasant opportunity is a data about disk space usage on all drives in the bottom program window.

If during work you had any difficulty contact the program technical support. The button “help”>“home page”.

As Directory Size is a license program it is necessary for you to pay for its high-grade usage. The cost varies from 27.9 $ for personal (personal license) up to 299.9 $ for company usage (site license). For reception of more particularizes address to http://www.moleskinsoft.com/foldersize/.
