Anyone know a good, simple program that displays the size of each folder? One very annoying thing with windows that I can't understand why it's not a standard feature.

I use treesize for a spell. there's a couple others out there that I cannot recall off the top of my head.

Tucows software makes an application caled ViewFolderSize Pro - that shows you in the Window menu -- exactly how big the folder is.. pretty easy to use

because, for some reason that I do not know, it can get rather resource-intensive.

some of the explorer-replacement type programs, like Directory Opus for example (the last one of such type prog that I've used) .. have it as an option. and it does take a noticeable while for the dir sizes to be calculated.

If you hover your mouse over the folder, you will get a tool tip giving you the size of the folder. Depending on your requirements, this may or may not be sufficient.

I actually use a program called ExplorerXP for all of my file management. Among the many improvements over Windows Explorer is the one you've requested.
