With an XP desktop, when I click Start\My Computer and place my cursor on the icon of the C:drive I see the drives’ memory space used and the free memory left. Good.



Can I do something similar to see the memory space used by a particular folder, say C:\Documents and Settings? I know how to seethe memory usage of each ofl the files in the Documents and Settings folder but I don’t get a total figure that way.



Thanks, ... batpark

This is what I see what I point to My Documents under C:\Users\myaccountname:

Edit: Documents and Settings is not a real folder, it's a Junction point/Hard link
