Name

The name of the file or folder.

Full Path

The full path, including the object's name.

Size

The size of the object.

Allocated

The space that the object currently occupies on disk.

Files

The number of files in a directory branch.

Folders

The number of sub-folders in a directory branch.

% of Parent

The amount of space in percent that a folder or file occupies relative to its parent folder.

Last Modified

The last change date of the object. TreeSize Free calculates the last change and last access date more precisely than the Windows Explorer, because it takes all files in all sub-folders into account. So the values shown in the Windows Explorer may differ.

Last Accessed

The last access date of the object.

Compr.

The size in percent by which an object has been compressed using the built in compression of the file system.

Owner

The user name that owns a folder or file.

Optical media size

Attributes

The file attributes Readonly (R), Hidden (H), System (S), Directory (D), Archive (A), Compressed (C), Sparse (P), Temporary (T), Offline (O), Reparse Point (L) Encrypted (E) and Alternate Data Streams (Z).

Type

The file type, e.g. "Text file".

Dir Level (Relative)

The level of an object in the file system. This value can be useful when processing the collected data.

Creation Date

The date at which the object has been created.

Containing Path

The full path to object, not containing the object's name.

Avg. File Size

The average size of a file in a folder.

Permissions

The access permissions of the object in the UNIX-like format: Username1: +/-R +/-W +/-X   Username2: ... where "+" means the right is granted and "-" means that the right is denied. "R" stands for read access and "W" for right access. For files "X" means the right to execute, for directories the right to list the directory content.
TreeSize maps the actual permissions to a very compact presentation: Multiple access control elements for one user are merged to one, and most special permission are not displayed.

Please note:

You want to get notified if the permissions of certain important folders change? This can be done using our monitoring tool "Server Sentinel". The file system sensor allows you to monitor specific file system events, send automatic notifications, and react to them accordingly.

The version number that is included in EXE, DLL OCX and similar binary files.

Author

This column shows the author information that is extracted from the meta data of the file, taken from MS Office and compatible files.
