Welcome to More Space 95 for Windows 95! This popular shareware
utility was written to help you clean up your hard disk. It does
this by identifying file duplicates, large files, old files
and obsolete files.
If you don't want More Space 95, it comes with an uninstall option
which will clean itself off your hard disk.
Duplicates can be identified by several different criteria:
1) Name only
2) Name and size
3) Name, size and modified date/time
4) Size only
5) Size and modified date/time
6) Size and type
7) Type and modified date/time
Once the duplicates are identified you can view each pair of duplicates
on a split screen comparing dates, times, attributes, sizes and even
the file contents. The differences are color highlighted between file
pairs giving you an easy way to determine which file you need to keep.
Many DLL and EXE files contain extra version information normally not
visible. This extra information is also displayed in the file pair
display.
Large files (or file hogs) are identified by size with the largest files
appearing at the top of the list. You can also identify zero length
files.
Old obsolete files are identified by access date, creation date and
modification date. You can view all files that were accessed today.
You can view all files that are more than 3 years old.
Large obsolete folders are also displayed as each folder and all sub-folders
and files are totalled under each main folder.
You can quickly clean up your hard disk searching for particular types of
file extensions such as TMP, $$$, OLD, BAK.
The file/disk statistics are very powerful in that they can total up the
cumulative file sizes, file ages, file types and usage times of each
file on the hard disk. All graphs are very easy to read and in 3D. You
can zoom in any graph simply by dragging the mouse from the upper left
to the lower right area of the area in view. The time statistic can be
interesting particularly if you work with a specific set of file types
on a daily basis. For example if you work with *.DOC and *.XLS files
everyday you can include only these file types during statistic collection
and you will be rewarded with a 24 hour chart that lists the peak times
of activity during the day.
Sometimes it is nice to be able to 'peek' inside of a program file ... i.e. you
want to view the english strings inside which may reveal copyright information,
author information, error messages and such. More Space allows you to PEEK
inside a file while browsing. Generally most information inside of
program files such as EXE or DLL files looks like heiroglyphics. The peek
function will get past the heiroglyphics and get you to english language
strings. This can be very informative as oftentimes software vendors will
include some very revealing information such as the names of the programmers
involved in the project or some nasty error messages.
More Space 95 is available as shareware. The registered version allows you
to search for duplicates and gather statistics over multiple mapped drives.
An order form is included in the program.
