Drive Cleanup Utility
Looking for a way to see which files are taking the most space on your hard drive and removing them? WinDirStat and KDirStat are two programs for doing just that. WinDirStat is of course for Windows while KDirStat is the Linux version, which comes as part of KDE.
This program displays a tree structure of the drive and as well show a graphical representation of the files. A person can click on the graphic showing a large portion of the drive and see exactly what that file is. Also when a folder is selected in the tree view it highlights the area of the graphic that corresponds to that folder. This utility is designed to help a user clean their system, so from this display files are able to be deleted as well as viewed.
If you're looking for a fast way to see which files are taking most of your space to help you decide which to remove from your drive, this is a perfect application for you.
