ExpressFileSize

ExpressFileSize is a small software application developed specifically for helping you view the exact size of files and folders occupied on the disk. This way, you can also identify which items eat up most space on your computer.

You are welcomed by a simple design that has to offer only a few configuration settings. You cannot appeal to a help manual but you can get an idea about how the tool works in a short amount of time thanks to its intuitive set of options.

You may also rely on tooltips for viewing short descriptions about the utility’s functions. Folders can be imported using only the built-in browse button (the drag-and-drop support is not implemented).

ExpressFileSize offers you the possibility to view information about the scanned files, namely total number of files and folders, as well as total size.

The utility reveals a graphical display of the scanned folders and their size. On the downside, the graphical display is poorly implemented so it needs several enhancements in order to become efficient and look intuitive.

Other notable configuration settings worth being mentioned enable you to export the size information to plain text file format, print file size info, show data in megabytes or kilobytes, refresh the information displayed in the main window, make use of preset hotkeys for faster actions, as well as open the location where a folder is stored via Windows Explorer.

Tests have shown that ExpressFileSize carries out a task quickly and without errors. It eats up CPU and memory resources while scanning files and folders so the overall performance of the computer may be affected. You may also stop the scanning process if you think it takes too much time.

To sum things up, ExpressFileSize has to offer nothing more than basic functionality when it comes to getting information about the size of your files and folders.
