FatFileFinder
This cross-platform app sweeps a folder or drive and displays the size of each item in the folder, to assist the user in cleaning their drive.
Similar to WinDirStat but lighter and faster.
Usage
-
Click the folder button (📁) in the toolbar to choose a folder or drive. The program will begin sizing the folder and updating the view.
-
To stop sizing early, press the 🛑 button at the bottom of the window.
-
Single click rows in the table to view their properties in the sidebar. Click a disclosure triangle to open a folder.
You can also use the up and down arrows to move the selection. Note that expanding a folder with a lot of immediate sub-items can take a moment.
-
To refresh a folder, select it in the table and press the refresh button (🔁). The program will refresh the contents of that folder.
-
If you want to reload the root folder, you will have to re-size it using the 📁 button.
-
To view an item in your system's file browser, select it in the view and press "Reveal in Explorer/Finder" in the sidebar.
-
To copy the full path to an item, select it in the view and press "Copy Path" in the sidebar.
-
FatFileFinder does not delete files. You must delete them manually yourself.
Note: The Windows version currently does not support the emoji icons.
