  2. What is Directory Services Restore Mode?????

    to expand on that, it is used for restoring active directory on a domain controler.

    From there you can do a restore, and you would have the ability to either push out the recovered ad data (thus making this one the primary controler) or to just let this server be a member domain controller.

    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?
