WizTree is a very fast disk space analyzer and search tool, scanning a single folder or your entire hard drive quickly and showing those files and folders using the most disk space. The program uses the NTFS Master File Table (MFT) feature in Windows to rapidly view files.
Note that this high-speed mode is limited to local, NTFS-formatted drives. The program must do a (much slower) scan of FAT-formatted or network drives for analysis.

Just downloaded the latest portable version, and it asks for admin permission. That is a no no for me. |

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. |
FolderSize scans a selected drive or folder and reports the size of all the subfolders. The result can be viewed in bytes, percentage of total space or as a bar graph

@sarahwilliams25 I will be the judge of what is the "better" app,as I'm sure others are also capable of making the same choice for themselves thank you :) |

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. |

Thanks Guido76. It's still labelled as 8.0.5 but it's a new version and working here too

It doesn't display some German special characters correctly (e.g. ß), and more importantly, it shows a "buy the pro version" nagscreen upon exit and opens the product homepage in the system's standard browser.

Emka, you're right. Some problems with the French language too. And a very annoying nag-screen, and automatic launch of the browser. Too bad! |

The developer of GetFoldersize was kind enough to promise to restore the smaller icons in the next release. |
SpaceSniffer is a graphical disk use analysis software with available filtering. It can break down display into individual folders and files. Uses a special "Treemap" to display disk use (a concept invented by Prof. Ben Shneiderman).

I think i'll keep this one. WinDirStat is prettier but Spacesniffer is way faster and natively portable

Awesome application! |
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. |
