This tells Windows to display every single file and folder on your computer. It also opens the Search tab at the top of the screen. It will take a while for all files to appear, but you don't have to wait.
Just go to the next step. It's in the "Refine" section of the toolbar at the top of File Explorer. This opens a menu of different size ranges for files. Once you do this, File Explorer will take a few moments to fetch and display all files that are larger than 4GB on your PC.
If, instead of files, you see "No items match your search," you don't have any files that are larger than 4 GB. Click the Size button in the toolbar again and select Huge 1 — 4 GB. You can also specify that you want to see all files larger than a certain size by typing a filter into the search bar.
Replace MB with any file size. Click the Details button to switch to Details View. Look for the two small icons at the bottom-right corner of the window—the first of the two icons it looks like a checklist is the Details View button. When you click this button, it switches to a view that more clearly displays each file's name, date, type, size, and location.
Click the Size header above the file list to sort by size. It's one of the column headers above the list of files. This makes the biggest files in the selected size range appear at the top of the list. If you click this header again, the order will reverse.
Re-hide protected system files and folders if you unhid them earlier. This helps you avoid accidentally deleting a required system file. Here's how to do so after you're finished browsing your files: Click the View tab at the top of File Explorer. Check Don't show hidden files, folders, or drives and click OK. Click Search. Your search results display in the white space. The Search Companion tells you when the search is complete and prompts you with more Search options.
If your search is complete, click Yes, finished searching. Simply double-click the file to open it. Previewing image files You can preview image documents including fax documents using the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer without opening an image-editing program.
To preview an image file: Right-click the file, then choose Preview from the pop-up menu. The Windows Picture and Fax Viewer opens, displaying the image file. That is the only app that does the job. It finds large files and folders. It returns the complete report and works very fast too. It has some additional features such as Disks Watchdog.
Hi actually none of them check dept of Path directory levels as I can see , but is ther som good tool for that on w? Gave WizTree a go tonight. It does not report accurately at all. I noticed it when I scanned the hard drive I use for all of my games. It was showing many directories as having MB, less, or even 0 bytes, when each are in the multiple GB range. I just used it on a drive that contains most of my games 1. Oh wow thx. This is awesome! Scanner is the fastest thing of them all he just needed seconds to scan may gb ssd while jdiskreport and WinDirStat need over 10 minutes.
Very useful post. Yeap, I would agree WizTree is a very quick tool and would have been included if it was around when the post was written. It is something that will very likely be added when this post gets an update.
Personally, I still prefer SpaceSniffer though :. I have spent days trying to remember the name of this. I kept looking for wizard tree! I agree this is by far the best one to get an overview of everything. Another free tool of Hard Drive manager for you! With this utility, you can create, format, resize and delete the parition. Totally free for home users. Download free here. A similar product is sequoia view, also very easy to use works fine on xp and win7 only tried it on these two.
Thanks for the article, just tried Space Sniffer for the first time and love it! Something funny going on though, this article is dated Oct 16 this year, but there are comments from two years ago?
Well spotted Mr. Raymond is going to write about the reasons for this and other things such as the new theme hopefully in the next few days.
As Treesize and JDiskReport were in the original post, any commments that can stay were left in. Great post! Keep up the great work, Hal Always a buzz to get ideas from this site.
I found 2 monstrous sized Hotmail files for MS Outlook! So I moved them to E drive instead of C. Freeing C drive with additional 10 GB. Thank you so much! I was one of the people who got CCleaner and started wiping files and defragmenting my disk for small amounts of space, going through my official list of programs and finding nothing that takes up that much space, or finding things that take up space that i still use. You saved me so much space.
