Having a clear view of the items stored on the computer can be particularly useful when you have to decide what to delete to clear some space. FolderSizes is a complex program that mixes together several tools.
The app has a simple interface and a clean layout and responds quickly to all commands.
As mentioned, the program is a powerful, network-aware disk space analyzer that reports and offers visualization tools for managing the disk space on the computer. It can easily isolate a variety of space-wasting files, such as items that are large, temporary or duplicates.
Thus, it can generate detailed and graphical reports regarding the space usage on the disk, while scanning the entire system. Also, a search tool comes packed with this program, enabling you to easily locate the desired files.
All the files are displayed complete with additional details, such as the name, size, space allocated, number of files and folders (in case it’s a directory), the last date it was modified, as well as the type and name of the owner.
The program can be particularly useful to have around if you often find yourself in need of more storage space and have no idea what items can be deleted and which cannot.
The bottom line is that FolderSizes is a nice app that works well and is quite fast in locating problematic items on the computer. Less experienced individuals shouldn’t have any troubles while installing and customizing this utility, thanks to the intuitive layout.
