JAM Software Presents TreeSize Touch App

Windows 8
arrived and software developer JAM
Software
GmbH
releases a member of the TreeSize family: the touch-optimized
reporting-app TreeSize
Touch.

The application
offers disk space management features and was developed for
touchscreen devices.

It enables users to
explore local directories and provides information regarding disk
space usage. ARM-based tablets such as the Surface with Windows RT
are supported.

Features of TreeSize
Free have been adapted: scans can be initiated with a few taps of a
fingertip or clicks of a mouse. The application works on all storage
media: removable storage solutions such as SD cards or USB drives can
be scanned just like hard disks (HDD or SSD).

The software
automatically creates a directory view.
This
tree can be sorted according to various criteria:

• size on the storage
  medium (allocated space)

• real size of folders
  or files

• percentage of space
  the file uses in the parent folder

• number of files in a
  folder

• file and folder
  names

Users can choose in
which unit the results will be displayed in (KB, MB or GB) or let it
pick the optimal unit automatically.

Touching ‘Top100’
will list the largest files in a selected directory
to identify space hogs. Selecting a folder or file and clicking
‘Details’
grants deeper insight into the object properties and lists name,
path, size, number of included files and folders, last modification
date, last access date, attributes and date of creation.

A
version 2.0 of TreeSize Touch featuring file operations such as
moving or deleting files is scheduled for the weeks after the
official release of Windows 8.
