For day-to-day file deletion, follow our instructions for permanently deleting files, as emptying the Recycle Bin still leaves traces of the deleted files on your hard drive. Mac® OS X® users should use Disk Inventory X or GrandPerspective alternatives.
Well,(These values tally with the number shown by the Windows Explorer properties dialog for the drive.) On the other hand WinDirStat has determined the sizes of all files and added them up. Perform this scan in WinDirStat about once a month to clean up any files you no longer need access to. On the one hand, WinDirStat knows the total capacity of the drive and the free disk space. Ive also tried all the graphical tools I can find, and none have a command line interface. Ive tried sysinternals du (cant exclude/include file types), diruse (limited like du), cygwin du (too slow). Once you've identified the culprit, right-click the file and choose "Delete (to Recycle Bin)" for later disposal, or "Delete (no way to undelete)" for permanent, irreversible deletion. Basically, Im looking for something like Windirstat that works well on the command line and is easy to distribute over a network. If you click on a folder or file, the corresponding color block will be highlighted below.Īlternatively, click the large blocks of color to find out which files are taking the most space. The top half lists files and folders sorted by file size. When the scan is complete, you'll be presented with the summary screen. Click "OK," and give the program 5 to 10 minutes to scan your hard disk. Launch WinDirStat and select the drive you want to evaluate.
