I use Tree Size Pro and it is an excellent tool. I agree with the above.

I'm a huge fan of NirSoft's (free!) utilities, which I've been using for many years:
http://www.nirsoft.net/

One of them is SearchMyFiles:
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/search_my_files.html

Scroll to the bottom of the page at the above URL for the download links. Note that there are both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. It is a no-install/stand-alone executable — just unzip the file and run the EXE.

When you run it, you'll see this Search Options dialog:

SearchMyFiles Search Options
There are a boatload of options, including a Summary Mode and a Duplicates Search. Spend some time experimenting — it's a fantastic (free!) tool. Regards, Joe
