    Games can not save in directory ..!


    When I try to open the game this error pops up:

    Directory Creation Error Error trying find the Directory for the Game Config File : C:\Users\arsal\OneDrive\?????\Criterion Games\Need for speed...\

    I think the error is from OneDrive because other programs and games had the same issue for example QtCreator couldn't save the files and I moved the location to another drive partition.

    Directory Size Utility

    First of all nice utility, Mindweaver!
    Second of all, it's so nice to see that this section ain't dead.

    I have a few questions/suggestions, maybe you'd want to see ...
    • maybe you rename Get Folder button caption to something more intuitive? Add Folder, Get Folder Size, Check Folder Size or something like that?
    • Could you add subfolder files to the right pane? (it can be a tickbox with include sub dirs)
    • maybe you also add export list to excel?
    • there's delete file button maybe you add delete folder button too?
    • and finally maybe you can add UP button for directories?
