By sorting folder paths in terms of folder size it's
easy to quickly see where the bulk is. Sometimes


I like WinDirStat, and Scanner, for those. But people vary a lot: I
remember saying that in a similar discussion, and one of the
participants hated them!


That was possibly me. :-) When I tried WinDirStat, I hated it and found
it to be utterly useless except as a trinket. Instead, when I tried
Treesize Free, I instantly loved it. Seeing how well it worked, I
hurriedly tried Treesize Pro, which I didn't like at all.

We're each a little different. What one loves, another hates.

it's surprising. One friend had several GBs of email
in Thunderbird, due to friends sending big pictures
that she didn't delete. In another case, a blind friend


Yes, I _never_ keep attachments in emails; if they are something I want
to keep, I save (export, whatever) them, and remove them from the email;
Turnpike can do this, as can Outlook, and I think Thunderbird and
Outlook Express - while still keeping any _text_ in the email if wanted.


We're different here, as well. I sometimes _save_ attachments so that
they're easier to access and work on, but I _never_ delete an attachment
from the email which carried it.
