Default Folder size

When i arrange files by size, my folders don't order themselves by
size they remain as alphabetical order. I can only check it by right-
clicking and going to properties. Single files will arrange themselves
but not folders, also when i go to view 'details' the size column is
empty. Is this normal or is there something wrong?

Default Re: Folder size

Hello,

There is a small program called Folder Size that will do the job you are
looking for. This is normal, but you can arrange the folders by size and
view their size in the "Size" column (which will be replaced by "Folder
Size", which will show the size of files and folders).

http://foldersize.sourceforge.net/

Hope this helps.

I'm using ViewFolderSize Pro.
http://www.moveax.com/viewfoldersizepro/

With this program you can sort your folders by size. Also you can
monitor size changes and take action automatically when the size
exceeds the limit.
