FolderSizes Help

FolderSizes provides an extremely powerful built-in search facility that can isolate specific file and folder instances based upon a broad range of criteria. FolderSizes search can easily be used to find and remove empty folders.

Steps to accomplish:

1.Click the Search button in the application ribbon bar. The FolderSizes Search window will appear.

2.Add one or more paths to the Search Paths tab by using the New Path button.

3.Click the Search Rules tab, and click the New Rule Button. Select New Folder Rule from the pop-up menu. The Rule Editor window will appear.

4.Click the Item Count tab in the Rule Editor window, and set the file and folder counts to be "equal to" 0 (zero).

5.Click OK to save the rule and click the Start toolbar button to begin the empty directory search.

Once you've got a listing of empty folders, you can select the ones you don't need and click the Delete toolbar button to remove them.

Important: Never assume that a directory is safe to delete simply because it is empty. Make sure you understand the potential impact before modifying any part of your computer or network file system(s).
