CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

This simple plug-in lets you view the size of all items in Windows Explorer, but it isn't overly impressive. Directory Scope installs directly to Windows Explorer. You'll need to set the view to Details, and depending on your OS, select "Choose Columns" or "Choose Details." Directory Size will be offered as an option--just tick the check box to add a new column to Explorer displaying the size of both files and folders. However, during the demo, Directory Scope only shows the size for some items with "Trial Version" displayed for most. This seems an unnecessary limitation and similar programs offer full functionality during trial, as well as other features to help you identify resource hogs in your system. It's fairly easy to use, but nothing stands out about this program and most will want more options than Directory Scope has to offer.
Editor's review of Directory Scope

Publisher's description

(From Test1Software ):

This software quickly identifies the size of your folders, files, and directories as you scroll through Explorer. You will never wonder where all the free space went again. This is a utility that should have been included in windows from the start like Macs.
