Multibooter Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 (edited) I just tested FolderSize v1.31, referred to in the link above, under Win98:- it works Ok on a 750GB ext. USB HDD- it works Ok on a large partition (239GB), it correctly counted 410.000 files in that partitionI have been using DISKdata v3.4.1 (it's not freeware) and still prefer it, DISKdata sorts the displayed results and has a better feel to it.FolderSize has a feature which I have not seen in other utilites: it indicates the number of files & folders in a partiton & on a CD/DVD. FolderView may also be a starter during recovery work on damaged CDs: On a very badly damaged CD FolderSize could display the directories & number of files/directories; DiskData just hung with a blue screen, and Windows Explorer froze. With FolderSize you may have a chance of seeing what you may have lost on a bad CD, for the actual repair work I use BeyondCompare + Windex window cleaner. Another plus of FolderSize is that it's a standalone program & doesn't require installation. Edited September 17, 2008 by Multibooter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodgerOver Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 Thank you Cannie,this is really a nice program. I like it and I have installed it, because you can limit the socpe of the folders/files analysed (in the contrary to TreeSize which always scans the whole drive). ... But I was wrong in presuming that the program I was (desperately) looking for was this one. I thought this was the folder size shell extension I had before reinstalling. This was really a shell extension. It added (on WIN 98SE) a PERMANENT line in my rightclick/context menu showing the size of the directory/folder/file I clicked on. I used it so often, but I even can't remember the exact name. The only thing I remember is that, when I installed it, it said "Loading size loader" or something similar. Has anyone used this program and does he/she remember the name of this program ?Thank you for your help !Rodger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
