add size of folder & descendant file count to folder name.

Post by Confucius Of Essex »

Hi,
How do I add the folder size & the number of files in the folder & subfolders to multiple folders?
ie
folder1
folder2
folder3
to
folder1 (Size 9,135,795) [20 files]
folder2 (size 11,135,546) [23 files]
folder3 (size 555,987) [9 files]

the folders may contain more folders with more files in them, so I would like the total of all the files and total of all files sizes (in bytes), no need for a folder count though.

thank you

Can't be done at the moment.

I will look into adding support for this.



You can include the size with the following:

You'll need Everything 1.5

Select the desired folders and press F2.

Change the New Format to:

%1 (size: <formatnumber:$total-size:>)

Review the new filenames and click OK.
