FASTFOLDER Disk space analyzer · part of the DataHaat suite

Find where the space went.

Point FastFolder at a drive and it tells you what's eating it — biggest folders, biggest files, biggest file types. Built for support desks, so the answer lands on the clipboard ready to paste into a ticket.

Download FastFolder

Half a megabyte. That's the whole tool.

FastFolder doesn't bundle a runtime, which is why it isn't a 60 MB download. Install it properly, or carry the single exe on a USB stick.

Windows 10 / 11 · x64

Installer

Setup (.exe)536 KBv1.0.2
Download installer

Signed setup wizard — installs to Program Files with shortcuts and a proper uninstaller, and fetches the .NET runtime if the machine doesn't have it. /VERYSILENT for unattended rollout.

Portable · no install

Single exe

Executable407 KBv1.0.2
Download the exe

Copy it to a USB stick or a share and run it. Nothing to install, no admin rights needed to deploy it.

One prerequisite: the .NET Desktop Runtime 8 or newer (x64). The installer checks for it and, only if it's missing, downloads it from Microsoft and verifies Microsoft's signature before installing it. The portable exe relies on the standard Windows prompt, which links to the same download.

What's inside

Built for the person who has to answer "why is the disk full?"

Focused, not bloated — the DataHaat way. FastFolder answers one question properly and gets out of your way.

List now, measure on purpose

Clicking a drive lists that level in milliseconds, even on a 4 TB volume. Nothing recursive ever starts from a single click.

The 300 largest files

One tab lists the biggest files anywhere in the measurement, biggest first. This is usually the whole answer.

Space by file type

Grouped by extension, so a runaway pile of .log, .bak, .iso or .vhdx files gives itself away.

Every drive at a glance

A used/free bar for each volume, amber past 75% and red past 90% — you can see the problem before you click it.

Elevate only when needed

Starts as a normal user with no UAC prompt. When a profile or system folder says "access denied", elevate from inside the window.

Ticket-ready output

Copy a plain-text summary formatted to paste straight into a ticket, or export whatever tab you're on to CSV.

Keeps itself current

FastFolder checks DataHaat for new releases and verifies the SHA-256 of what it downloads before installing it.

Night or Normal

A dark look for long shifts and a light one for daylight — it remembers which you chose between runs.

Why it stays fast

Two speeds, and you pick.

Most analyzers make you wait for a full recursive scan before showing anything. FastFolder separates the cheap operation from the expensive one, so you only pay for the deep walk when you actually want it.

1

Listing is instant. Click a drive or double-click a folder and you get that one level — subfolders, plus the files sitting directly in it at their real sizes. Often that alone finds the culprit.

2

Measuring is deliberate. Press F5 or "Measure this folder" to walk everything underneath, with a live progress bar. Until then, subfolders honestly read not measured rather than showing a fake zero.

3

Then the shares appear. Once there's a total, each row gets its share bar and the summary cards fill in — total size, files, folders, unreadable folders and elapsed time.

For people who live in it

Keyboard first.

F5 Measure the current folder
F1 Open the manual
Alt + ← Go up one folder
Enter Measure the path you typed
Ctrl + E Export the current tab to CSV
Ctrl + Shift + C Copy the ticket summary

Right-click any row for Open in Explorer, Copy full path, or Scan this folder as root.
