  • Stable Diffusion Taking Up Too Much Space
    I would just google "folder size" and download whatever doesn't look too sketchy. https://foldersize.sourceforge.net/, for example. (I assume you are on Windows.). Source: over 1 year ago
  • Is there a way I can delete empty folders with a command?
    Afaik Windows Explorer can’t sort folders by size for some stupid reason. Just files. This program adds a little extra window that lets you sort folders by size: http://foldersize.sourceforge.net/ Hope that helps in some way :). Source: almost 2 years ago
  • What's wrong with my storage?
    There is a resource I used on my previous laptop that showed where the abnormally large files were, found on SourceForge. The culprit for me was the folder within "Windows (old)" that had all of the outdated parts of Windows from each time there was an update. Holyshit, there was a 500 gb internal storage and, like you, only 10 GB free space. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • How far it's fallen. Bring back my dog.
    I still use this ancient thing called Foldersize does all I want it to do. I can easily find the biggest files on various drives. Source: about 2 years ago
  • see folder size in explorer
    I've know nothing about this app: http://foldersize.sourceforge.net/. Source: over 2 years ago
