    MSFS2020 packages directory


    Hi all,


    For better performance on MSFS2020, I have installed windows 10 fresh instalation and MSFS2020 on an SSD Me M.2 drive and I would not install anything other than these two programs on this drive. my computer has only 01one M.2 slot. However this drive has only 256 GB and I did not expect the MSFS2020 would consume more than 10GB with each new update !! Now after installing the Japan update this drive only has 40 GB free. I have another SSD drive but it is not SSD Me. So I would like to change only the Packages folder which includes both the Community and Official folders for this new SSD, because I am afraid of losing performance, if I change the entire directory of the MSFS2020 to the new drive which is slower.

    So my question: Can I just change the Packages folder for this new drive that is slower? If so, how do I do this?

    :)

    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?
