Dear users of TreeSize Professional.
TreeSize Professional 5.0 is now available for download.
The changes since 4.3.2 are:
- It is now possible to group scans under a virtual root folder.
This virtual root folder shows a summary of all scans that are part of
this group. This way you can merge different scans together e.g. for
printing or exporting. You can access this feature through the context
menu of a root folder or through the "Tools" menu.
- A new kind of chart called treemap has been added. It shows
a hierarchical view of the file system. In this treemap chart each folder
is shown as a rectangle with its subfolders inside, again as rectangles.
- The list on the "Extensions" tab can now be grouped by
file types like "Audio Files", "Video
Files", "System Files", etc. This feature can be turned on
or off by a new toolbar button.
- The tabs "Extensions", "Users" and
"File Ages" now have a feature "Show Files"
that generates a list of files of the selected item.
- The selected items in the
various file and directory lists of TreeSize now show the selection using
a style similar to Windows Vista. This makes colored text and the small
embedded charts easier to read.
- The TreeSize column for the
Windows Explorer is now also supported on 64Bit XP/2003 systems. The .NET
Framework 2.0 is required on 64Bit systems for the column to work.
Unfortunately a Microsoft employee confirmed that such an additional
Explorer column won't be possible under Windows Vista.
- The number of decimals can now
be set in the View menu instead of the "Options" dialog.
- The gradient colors of the
optional indicator bars in the tree can now be chosen in the
"Options" dialog.
- In the TreeSize Options dialog
you can now change the maximum number of threads that TreeSize creates for
each scan. Like before TreeSize will still adjust the number of threads to
the current system load and so often create less threads than the maximum
number.
- In the "Options"
dialog it is now possible to customize
the intervals that are used to generate the chart on the "File
Ages" tab.
- TreeSize has a new option that
allows taking hard links and alternate
data streams into account when calculating disk space, which
produces more accurate results. However this makes it necessary to open
the files and therefore slows down a scan.
- The "View" menu now
allows switching to plain Byte values.
- The Excel, Text and HTML export
options now allow to specify whether or not units like "KB",
"MB" or "%" should be added to exported values. By
omitting units the thousands separators will also be omitted, which
simplifies further processing of exported values. This replaces the former
option File / Export / Use plain numbers.
- The command line options
/FILEAGESCHART and /HISTORYCHART have been added. They allow to save the
charts on the "History" and the "File Ages" chart.
- The new command line option
/TOPFILESLIST allows exporting the top 100 files list.
- The columns of the "Copy
list of files" feature are now determined by the settings for the
"Text Export" in the "Options" dialog of TreeSize
- The executable has been renamed
to "TreeSize.exe".
- The support for Windows 98 and
ME has been dropped. Registered customers are still able to download the
Windows 98/ME compatible TreeSize V4 from our customers area.
- New application icon.
File Search:
- An additional search type "Custom Search" has been
added. This search type allows you to freely define and combine search criteria like file name, date, size,
attributes and owner. The results can be printed or exported
like you are used from the other available search types.
- Now entire servers, entire domains or even your entire network can be
searched. TreeSize automatically browses for PCs and all shares
on them (including hidden shares) and performs the search on all shares
that it finds.
- Improved
multithreading support, especially for the
MD5 checksum calculation, which should produce results faster on
multi-core machines.
- It is now possible to export and import the results as simple paths
only (DIR /B /S format). This simplifies post-processing of
TreeSize results and allows to import lists of paths in TreeSize.
- It is now possible to pass an
XML file to the TreeSize File Search on the command line, which contains
previously saved search options. This simplifies scheduled scans with
predefined search options.
- The "Move" operation now optionally logs the
performed operations to a log file.
- The result lists do now work as
a source for drag and drop
operations.
- A new feature "Check all
but Newest" has been added to the context menu of the duplicate file
search results.
- A new feature in the context
menu of the duplicate file search allows to replace duplicate files with hard links. This way all the
duplicate files remain at their position, but only one file occupies disk
space.
