disktree
Find what is eating the drive, and delete it, without leaving the terminal
In development
Sheet 24 of 47
Description
A disk usage analyser for the terminal in the spirit of WizTree and ncdu. Scan a drive or a folder, see a live size-sorted view of every directory, mark what you do not want, and send it to the Recycle Bin or delete it permanently.
It carries two scanners: a parallel directory walk that works anywhere, and — on an elevated NTFS volume — an MFT reader that streams the whole volume's metadata in a single pass. Deletion always sits behind a confirmation that lists the full path of everything about to go.
Features
- Parallel walk scanner, plus an NTFS MFT reader for whole-volume scans in one pass
- Live progress and size-sorted directory view while the scan is still running
- Multi-select marking with Recycle Bin or permanent deletion
- Confirmation dialogs list the full path of every item before anything is removed
