- Newest windirstat Questions - Super User
I just ran WinDirStat and noticed that Google Chrome is using tons of disk space One file in particular is 5 9GB and hasn't been modified since July 11, 2013, its name is just: 00000001 What is this
- disk space - Is it surprising that WinDirStat takes a long time to . . .
WinDirStat has not been updated for a very long time I have no doubt its routines could be improved to support more modern hardware In the end you are still attempting to perform an analysis on a 8 TB platter HDD which itself is slow RAID array would make it slightly faster but that involves its own pitfalls
- windows 7 - WinDirStat Save Report Option - Super User
WinDirStat does have an email report feature but I've never been able to get it to work Like I said in my comment, the export report feature is still an open issue SpaceSniffer is a similar tool that has an export feature
- Why does WinDirStat report less space used than Windows does?
WinDirStat, manual inspection, and any other storage consumption analysis tool report 46GB of data on the drive when launched from a copy of Windows running on the SSD This is a big discrepancy from the ~99GB consumed
- Almost half of disk space unaccounted for on Windows 7 computer
Used WinDirStat and it came back with a total of 71 3GB usage at the root level; C Drives properties says 135GB being used out of 138 GB total, ie, 135 GB - 71 3GB = 63 7GB missing somewhere; No "Unknown" files reported by WinDirStat; Windows Disk Management utility doesn't report any unused partitions or unclaimed space; chkdsk comes out clean
- How can I visualize the file system usage on Windows?
WinDirStat is a port of KDirStat for Linux It's free, lightweight, small (650kb installer), fast, portable (as a standalone exe file), and works on multiple versions of Windows Besides showing folders and percentages (for the entire disk or any subset of folders), it also displays an (optional) graphical usage map
- How to exclude folders from WinDirStat scan? - Super User
These folders substantially slow down the WinDirStat file tree scan Instead of attempting to persuade an extremely outdated utility to work efficiently, I recommend switching to a superior free tool that benefits from ongoing developer support: TreeSize Based on my recent experience with WinDirStat, it's about 10x slower than TreeSize!
- WinDirStat shows 244GB unknown space on external drive
If the list WinDirStat can see as that user can see 200GB, there will be 56GB unknown It is logical that the administrator can see more files compared to a normal user There are situations where the administrator still could only see a limited amount of GB's
