Directory Size: let’s speak about some good program:)
Today we’ll talk about Directory Size, the program allowing to analyze occupied disk space and visualise disk usage. The program answers 3 questions:
What size does the directory have?
Which are the largest files and folders on your PC or in a particular directory?
Files of what types are kept on the computer, what is their size and number?
Thus, the program shows how the disk space is distributed in folders and files, their structure, mutual relation, submission and communication, as well as a number of the basic characteristics – size, extension, etc.
For simplification of the analysis the program navigation is constructed by a principle of “windows”. It means that Directory Size is broken into 4 windows each of which carries out the function adhered to the next window function. The navigation begins with bottom left window and goes clockwise concretizing the maintenance of the previous one. The exception is the first window which independently also carries out help function. In it you’ll learn about cumulative distribution of drive space (size and free size).
The following window allows to choose a folder or a directory for analysis carrying out (Scan selected drive or Scan folder). Besides in this window you receive the basic representation about the structure of this directory thanks to the tree of folders representing all structural communications and the relations of folders and their size (by default in megabytes).
If you wish to learn more detailed information on structure, address to the following window of the program – top left one. In this the detailed information is presented on the chosen folder. The information includes data about the structure of files, their size, quantity, parity, dale in the chosen directory. Thanks to the Reports option it is possible to obtain the concentrated data about other components. Actually – each time to build a new picture of disk space usage on various factors –size, extension, file owner, creation time. And also to create “ratings” - the newest/old files, the greatest ones etc.
The last window – bottom left one – allows to receive evident representation about disk space distribution thanks to powerful graphic tool: schedules, diagrammes, etc.
