WizTree - The Fastest Disk Space Analyzer

Official WizTree web site. WizTree is the fastest disk space analyzer available for Windows. It reads the Master File Table (MFT) directly from the disk, bypassing Windows and gaining a huge performance boost.

@thomholwerda If you want a proper file explorer, Directory Opus. I've been daily running Linux for about three years now, and not a day goes by where I don't mourn the loss. I still renew my software license just to support them. https://www.gpsoft.com.au/

Also Voidtools' Everything, but I see others have already mentioned it. I sorely miss that one too...
