WinDirStat

WinDirStat is a special program that is an unusual file manager. It differs from most of its competitors by its interface. It is not so simple, so beginners in the field of technology are better to find other options. However, if you want to take advantage of something unusual, it is worth downloading WinDirStat.

Usage

Immediately it should be noted that there is no classification of files on the computer here. This is a disadvantage, however, not very significant. The main thing is that the utility makes it possible to visually see what files occupy space on the hard disk. Thanks to the unusual structure of the interface, you can get more visual information. You will be able to see what takes up the most space. If there is no space left on the disk, you will be able to easily choose what can be deleted to free up a few gigabytes of memory. Of course, you can notice similar features in other file managers. However, they won't provide as accurate and visual information. If you want to better navigate your disk, it is better to pay attention to WinDirStat specifically.

Features

First of all, this program will analyze the hard drive to see its contents. As a result of this analysis, the most accurate and detailed report will be generated. The working area is divided into 2 parts. In the first part you can see all the folders and files that are on the computer. They are presented in a tree-like form. Opening one folder, you can see the subfolders located in it. The second area contains a mosaic created from different colors. Each color shows a certain type of files, as well as its number. On the side of the mosaic, the ratio of colors to file types will be shown. There is a function to automatically select files of the same type. The program allows you to work with both areas at once. This will allow you to select all folders and files of the same type. It is this element that makes WinDirStat so convenient and simple.
