A Free Add-on for Windows Explorer
In my quest for new and interesting stuff for my About C, C++ and C# column I sometimes find little gems of software that I feel are worth mentioning here. This one is, and it’s for Windows 2000/XP (but Not Vista- want to know why- read Brian’s comments on his site).
One of the curses of modern large capacity disks is that you lose track of everything. Well I do! You can’t easily see which folders have lots of stuff in them (Apart from the two obvious- ie the Windows folder and Program Files). My 18 month old PC came with 800 GB of capacity but perhaps only 20% is now free. Where has it all gone?
The utility install in your windows explorer and you just right click to see the Folder Site. I’ve drawn a red box around this in the picture above which is from Brian Oraas’s website on Sourceforge. It also adds a control panel to customise it and you get to see a photo of Brian! It is a handy feature to have.
