About TreeSize Free

TreeSize Free scans a drive and presents a folder tree sorted by size, so the thing filling the disk is at the top before the scan has even finished. It reads the NTFS master file table directly, which is why a full drive scan takes seconds rather than minutes.

The free edition covers the common case. Duplicate finding, scheduled reports, scanning network shares at scale and exporting are reserved for the paid Professional and Enterprise editions from the same company.

Strengths

  • Reads the NTFS master file table, so scans finish quickly
  • Folder tree sorted by size, updating while it scans
  • Free for commercial use, not just personal
  • Integrates with the Explorer right-click menu

Limitations

  • Windows only and closed source
  • Duplicate search, reports and exports need a paid edition
  • No treemap picture in the free edition

Alternatives to TreeSize Free

Compare all

Software that can replace TreeSize Free for an important use case, and what changes if you switch.

  • WizTree

    Finds what is eating a Windows disk in seconds by reading the NTFS master file table directly.

    FreemiumProprietaryWindows

    WizTree also reads the NTFS master file table and adds a treemap, duplicate search and CSV export for free, but commercial use needs a paid licence.

  • WinDirStat

    Draws your whole drive as a treemap, so a single 40 GB file is a huge rectangle you cannot miss.

    WinDirStat is open source and shows a treemap with duplicate finding by hash, trading TreeSize's sorted tree for a denser picture.

  • SpaceSniffer

    Shows disk usage as a treemap you click into, so the biggest folders and files are immediately obvious.

    FreeProprietaryWindows

    SpaceSniffer is closed source freeware showing a live-updating clickable treemap, offered only as a 64-bit portable executable.

  • Filelight

    Shows disk usage as concentric rings you can click into.

    Filelight is open source for Windows and Linux, displaying usage as concentric rings and scanning network locations, though it pulls in KDE libraries.

  • gdu

    Find large directories with a terminal disk-usage analyzer.

    gdu is an MIT-licensed terminal analyzer with parallel scans for Windows, macOS and Linux, replacing the graphical tree with a text interface.

  • dua-cli

    Explore disk usage and remove unwanted files in the terminal.

    dua-cli is an open source terminal tool for Windows, macOS and Linux that browses disk usage interactively and can delete files.
