TreeSize

TreeSize analyzes files and folders to show how storage is used on Windows desktop systems. Scans can cover local drives, network shares, cloud storage, USB drives, SD cards, and external hard drives; treemap views and file-type breakdowns help present the results. Depending on edition, results can be exported to PDF, Excel, CSV, HTML, or SQLite. Professional adds server scanning, command-line parameters, scheduled scans, and automated reporting. Other listed tools include deleting, moving, bulk renaming, archiving, duplicate finding, and deduplication. TreeSize Free is for private, non-commercial use on Windows desktop and cannot be used on Windows Servers. The editions run on Windows Desktop and operate on-premise; the maker says data does not leave the computer or site and is not shared with third parties. Personal and Professional have 14-day free trials, while SpaceObServer Enterprise has a 45-day trial. Annual prices listed include 20.40 € per user for Personal and from 40.80 € per user for Professional. The Free plan is listed at free.
