Folder Size Native 64 Bit Operating Systems Support
Treesize For Mac 2020
Folder Size was already running under 64 Bit operating systems, but that had some limitations as it was a 32 Bit application. Under Windows, 32 Bit applications are limited to use 2 gigabytes of memory and though Folder Size is extremely optimized in terms of memory usage and performance that could cause a problem when scanning volumes that contain many small files. The used memory does not depend on the size of the scanned location, but on the quantity of files and folders that it contains. The 64 Bit version not only removes this limitation completely (the tool will use all the available memory on the system), but will also run faster because of the native 64 bit instructions used.
While the charts in Folder Size were beautiful they used Adobe Flash. It was popular in the past and was available on almost every computer, but it has always been a potential security hole and was avoided by the majority of the system administrators and advanced users. As Folder Size is used on server systems many system administrators had to use it without the charting due to the missing Adobe Flash on the system or scan the server over the network which is much slower. As we believe that security is a serious topic we have removed the Adobe Flash usage completely. The new charts look almost identical to the old ones and maybe even better.

Folder Size Handles Long Paths And File Names Better Than Windows Explorer
Many users do not realize that Windows has a limit of 260 characters per path including the file name and use huge names for their folders. This often is true for photo and music and other personal folders and use names like – “Photos from December 2015 – Our great vacation with Dharma and Greg and their lovely children and uncle Steve at the sunny coasts of Puerto Rico”. Of course such folder structure will cause only problems in Windows as even Windows Explorer will not properly manage paths longer than 260 characters. We have enabled Folder Size to scan and list such folders properly with few minor exceptions. Icons for very long paths can not be displayed as the Windows system does not support that and such files can not be located in Windows Explorer as it does not support them too, but the paths, files and their sizes will be properly listed inside Folder Size.
There are some extra minor improvements and fixes in this release.

It does not matter how a computer is used: on each system redundant files accumulate over time. Those space hogs block valuable hard disk space and can even slow down your machine. You can use cleaning software to get rid of unwanted files, but we recommend identifying space hogs before you start your cleanup download.
The only way to solve this problem can be summarized as cuc, short for: clean up computer! But how do I clean up my PC, you ask? To achieve a clean pc you should use the helpful features TreeSize offers to find the files you want to delete:
Find and erase duplicate files
- The TreeSize duplicate search finds duplicate files and allows easy deduplication, for example via NTFS Hardlinks.
Search for old or large files
Disk Inventory X
- The TreeSize file search offers a wide range of search options. All results can be sorted - for example according to file age.
- Taking a look at the list of 100 largest files on your system is a quick and easy way to find the worst space hogs.
Delete temporary (temp) files
- Temporary files remaining on your computer should be removed regularly. A disk cleaner can help, but you should always check for temporary files using the TreeSize file search.
