I use WizTree for this which is faster but maybe less accurate? The end report is, in my opinion, more intuitive and easier/faster to navigate.

- roywiggins 6y agoWizTree is unbelievably fast (for NTFS volumes). Nothing else I've found comes close. I believe it reads NTFS metadata directly rather than going through the OS, which is why it needs admin access, but it's breathtakingly faster than WinDirStat etc. The speed difference is less important when you have fewer files, but for people with packrat volumes that include a decade of personal documents, photos, and bits of defunct Windows installs that you need to prune, it's an absolute lifesaver. Ed: on my 3 terabytes of poorly organized files, Diskitude takes about 5 minutes to index. WizTree finishes in 10 seconds. I can't say which is more accurate, but I know the tree view in WinDirStat is much more useful, it lets you search by filename, it colors by filetype, it exports to CSV, etc. It's better in every way that matters to me.
