[edit] Functionality
The common functionality of all editions is to determine and to display drive/folder sizes, and to create reports such as tables and charts (pie chart, bar chart or tree maps). The collected data can be exported to plain text, HTML, XML, or Microsoft Excel formats.
[edit] History
The first version of TreeSize was programmed by Joachim Marder in 1996. It was designed to offer the features of Unix's du on Windows systems, with the addition of a GUI. The software tried to overcome the drawbacks of both the du command and Windows Explorer's right-click context menu. One year later, the newly founded German company JAM Software published TreeSize in a freeware and two shareware versions.
[edit] Editions
TreeSize Free is available at no cost and provides basic file size reporting and Windows Explorer integration. The Professional and Personal Editions of TreeSize (shareware versions) offer extended search functionality and a MD5 checksum that can find duplicate files. The Personal Edition offers most features of TreeSize Professional, except that it will not run on Windows Server, it does not support network drives, it cannot be controlled by the command line interface, and it provides fewer export options.
