Even in the times of cheap terabytes a final truth remains: Sooner or later every hard disk will near capacity. But there is help! TreeSize Free tells you where precious disk space has gone. Use the treemap to keep an eye on your disk space.

The freeware can be started from the context menu of a folder or drive and shows you the size of this folder, including its subfolders in an Explorer-like fashion. Large folders can be identified at a glance thanks to the gradient bar displayed in the background. All scan results can be drilled down to file level and filters, e.g. for files of a certain type, can be applied. TreeSize Free will even scan smartphones and mobile devices.

Version 4.0: Released on 27 Mar 2017

•TreeSize Free now offers the hierarchical treemap chart known from TreeSize Professional. It will help visualize data distribution on your system.

oYou can activate the treemap using the “Show Treemap” button on the “View” tab.

oCustomize the treemap charts view to focus on relevant information. On the “Treemap” ribbon tab you can define a level of detail and select which elements will be included.

oYou can interact with the chart: Use the mouse wheel to zoom, double click to navigate to the selected folder, or simply hover over an element to show detailed information.

•TreeSize Free now uses the ribbon interface known from other applications like the Windows 10 Explorer or MS Office.

•TreeSize Free is now available via the Windows Store, replacing TreeSize Touch.

•TreeSize Free now uses a modern UWP-style layout for the touch-optimized UI.

oOverlay menus and the new "Options" dialog increase the usable workspace.

oThe touch-optimized UI will now present itself windowed and can be moved/resized like other store apps for Windows 10.

oThe recently scanned paths are now available on the touch-optimized UI.

•The scaling for displays with high DPI values for both, classic and touch-optimized UI has been improved.

•The scan performance of mobile devices has been increased significantly.

•TreeSize Free now supports selecting multiple elements in the directory tree for mobile phones and cameras.

•Bugfix: Corrected the column layout in printed reports. It should now use the available size of an A4 page with portrait format.

•Bugfix: Several minor bug fixes and improvements have been incorporated.

•Please note: The support for Windows XP has been dropped. We provide the stable version for TreeSize Free V3.4.5 for Windows XP users.

•Please note: Since the U3 group has cancelled the system's development in June 2010, the support for U3 USB sticks has been dropped. If you require a portable installation, please select the ZIP file TreeSize Free Portable from our download section. This file will run directly from the USB device and does not require the U3 Launchpad.

Portable version available. Will scan smartphones and mobile devices too.

•Bugfix: When using the ribbon interface TreeSize Free occasionally froze and didn't respond, or showed up a message saying TreeSize Free ran out of memory. This issue has been fixed.

•A few users prefer the toolbar user interface of v3 over the modern ribbon interface. To get back the old user interface, you may now run TreeSizeFree.exe once with the command line option: /UseRibbonUI false.
