    Disk Usage Analyzer?


    Certain UNIX/Linux distros has a program to display which folders, files and locations that takes up most of your hard drive's space.

    So, that is what I am in search for now. Is there any disk usage analyzer available for Windows?

    I tend to look for official/genuine software created/supported by Microsoft. If it not available then some sort of trusted alternatives will do.

    Any help appreciated!

    I prefer TreeSizeFree over WinDirStat as you don't have to install anything. Just run an executable.

    FolderSizes for business


    If you're a business user, I'd strongly recommend checking out the FolderSizes disk space analyzer. It's got tons of advanced features such as built-in scheduling and report delivery, the ability to create snapshots, folder trend analysis, and tons more. Not free, but awesome and fairly inexpensive.

Every 10-40 minutes, the application I'm currently working in becomes unresponsive, and after a minute or two, the window turns white, notifying me that it's not responding. This unresponsiveness quickly spreads to other open processes, rendering them frozen as well. I can still use the mouse, and...
