Folder size utility sought


[link to this post]
 
I'm sure I recently saw a mention of a (hopefully free) utility to list the folders from a giving node and show the sizes of each folder (including its sub-folders) but I cannot find it now.

Basically I'd like to be able to easily see what's consuming the disc space.

Anyone able to help?

This seems similar: http://windirstat.info/

Treesize has always done the trick for me:- http://www.jam-software.com/freeware/index.shtml

Thanks for that. Having downloaded them both, my preference is for WinDirStat. It gives a bit more information than TreeSize, though if WinDirStat wasn't available then TreeSize would be OK as it gives the essential size information.

Anyway, they are both in my toolbox.

As ever, thanks people. (If there was a clapping hands smiley on this board I'd have used it)

Not strictly a tree size utility but Space Sniffer is a graphical representation of where all the space on your HDD has been used up.
