Directory Details

Disk Triage provides the capability to view the files that make up the sizing.  It does this via the "Directory Details" feature.  This feature is activated either by choosing "Toggle Directory Details" from the Tree View pop up menu or by hitting F8. 

TreeView Popup Menu

This will cause a new window to appear to the right of the Tree View.  This new window displays a list of the files in the selected directory (in the tree view) that meet the selection criteria of the Input Specifications.  This is an important point!  If you have asked the scan to only include *.MP3 over 5 MB in size - then those are the only files that will be included in the Directory Details window.  It will not show the rest of the files. 

The following screen shows the Directory Details screen - showing File Name, Size, Attribute, Owner and Last Modified Date.
