Running out of hard drive space. How do I find which folders/files are consuming the most space?
I am running out of hard drive space and have deleted files which I do not need. Still my hard drive is running out of space. How do I search my hard drive to determine which folders or files are taking up all of my hard drive space? Note, I am on Windows 7.

I find WinDirStat (Windows Directory Statistics) to be the best program I have ever used for this. I like it better than Tree Size Pro.
