AutoCompress v1.4.1.23
Andrew Lee on 13 Jul 2023 Change history
- 65KB (uncompressed)
- Released on 30 May 2014
- Suggested by Andrew Lee
AutoCompress intelligently compresses/decompresses drive content based on whether the compression will actually save space. For example, JPG and MP3 already have built-in compression, while text and spreadsheets frequently reduce to 50% or less of their original size. The program can also compress based on age or size, scanning all folders recursively under the provided folder (by default c:\).
The program can also disable compression based on the reverse criteria: since files that are already compressed take more processor power to decompress twice, this program can speed up your computer.
This program requires an NTFS-formatted drive.

Extremely helpful. I can only hope that future versions of Windows integrate something like this into the operating system automatically. |

The developer of GetFoldersize was kind enough to promise to restore the smaller icons in the next release. |

A handy program that is especially good for scanning and analyzing individual directories. Displays data such as size on disk, number of files/subfolders, folder/file sizes, path lengths, file dates, and other useful information for each entry under the selected drive or folder. |

I discarded in the first minute. When you double-click on C, there pops a "Do you want to scan c?" what is a most idiot question in this situation. Does not allow to scan one folder in the start. |
