It's not hard to find the file size of a single folder in Windows. However, doing the same set of operations for even a few at a time quickly becomes tedious. This little utility offers a simple solution to the problem, adding a new column in the Windows Explorer window that gives folders' total sizes, so tracking down space-wasters suddenly becomes a snap. The program offers only a few options, allowing users to set the column name and a choice of measurement unit. The basic version recalculates folder sizes every time they are displayed, while a $5 pro version caches the information for faster recovery. Even so, we were quite pleased with the program's performance, and would recommend it to virtually any computer user as a potentially valuable source of information.
