What Is Where's My Space Gone?
Even huge hard drives fill up fast--old setup programs, long forgotten demos, games you never play anymore, etc. This tool lets you see which folders on your hard drive are using up your space!

You can choose which hard drive to scan with the Disk button, and choose to hide folders below a specified size (Megabytes) using the Filter button. The Calculate button starts the scan. The results are shown in a nice color coded tree in the main part of the window.

"Special" Folders: Also in the Filter button, you can choose to show or hide "special" folders. These are folders you should not delete or edit directly! For example, for folders under Program Files, you can use this tool to see where the space is used, but you should then use the Windows Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs to uninstall any programs. Don't just delete the folder, that may leave other files or settings!

Warning: Just because a folder is using lots of space doesn't mean it isn't really important stuff that you want, or that is required by Windows to function!
