WinDirStat (Windows Directory Statistics) is a disk usage statistics viewer and cleanup tool for Windows. On start up, WinDirStat reads the whole directory tree once and then presents it in three useful views:
- The directory list, which resembles the tree view of the Windows Explorer but is sorted by file/subtree size,
- The treemap, which shows the whole contents of the directory tree straight away,
- The extension list, which serves as a legend and shows statistics about the file types.
Visit the WinDirStat blog for more up-to-date information about the program.
Note: If you are looking for an alternative to WinDirStat for Linux, then you are looking for KDirStat (apt-get install kdirstat on Debian-derivatives), and the alternative to WinDirStat for MacOS X is Disk Inventory X or GrandPerspective.

I have used this program that came with my Boot Magazine on a CD back in the 90's. Have used it off and on ever since. If this is the same program I used back then.. as it has the same name.. great job and thank you very much. What a great tool to see what data is on a drive. What a great tool to help make sure you get all data before wiping a customers drive. Fantastic tool to see what is taking up your hard drives space. I would give it 10 stars if I could. For beginners to computers, this will help you visualize what is on a hard drive and what all that data looks like.

Awesome tool! Helps you find files hard to locate, and view your used space graphically. I'd add a feature to hide subfolders from the graph, because maybe they're distracting and have nothing to do with the reason why you're using the app.
