    Wiztree - free- disk space analyser - I recommend this


    Occasionally I come across a program with which I very rapidly feel comfortable- a sense that it has been properly thought out, is fast, responsive, reliable and- of course- useful.

    Wiztree is one such, and is much faster than Windirstat, which also has a few drawbacks..
    Antibody Software - WizTree finds the files and folders using the most disk space on your hard drive

    It updates fast if you delete something, whether from its GUI or file explorer.

    As you can see here it uses the MFT, so like Everything etc is quick to scan- much faster than Windirstat.

    The only things I'd improve relate to the colours for the cushion disk map.

    I've made some changes:
    I found the default rather dull and not the most helpful.
    I wanted reds and oranges for file types I might be most likely to want to delete.
    I've added some file types which were not allocated a colour, some of them well known like avi, pdf for example.

    You may find this of interest.

    Moving Unallocated Disk Space to End of Disk


    Was commenting on the pic in post #21. Not suggesting anything. It just looked like the step you were doing was incomplete.

    disk space reduced after media creation tool

    Hi Sarah,

    One of the possible reasons why your disk space was reduced is due to an unallocated disk space on your partitions. For us to isolate your concern, we suggest that you check your device's partition. To do this, follow the steps provided below:

    • Type Computer Management on Ask me anything and press
      Enter.
    • Select Storage and click on Disk Management.
    • Send us a screenshot.
    We look forward to your response.
