Hi,
There are not any options within Windows Vista to get the size of folders to show in Explorer, only the size of files will show up. Your only option is to hover over with the mouse like you said, or right-click the folder and select properties. Please let us know if you have any more questions.
Hi,
To display folder size in Windows Explorer :
- Open a dos prompt and get a directory listing
- Open the properties for the folder
Wouldn't it be great if the folder size could be displayed right in Windows Explorer, just like it does for file size?
Hi,
Sequoia View is a very useful tool to do some nifty things with your folders. Other than that, this following note is now showing its age. If sorting and such is not necessary, a simple mouse-over your folders in Explorer will show you a tooltip with an approximate size of your directories. The menu option Tools --> Options --> View --> Show file size in folder tips should let you control the behavior of this tooltip.
Just point to the folder and the size should show up in a tooltip. If it doesn't, click Organize, choose Folder and Search Options , click the View
tab, select "Display file size information in folder tips" and click OK.
Try this freeware Folder Size it is really good and contains no adware or spam!
