Size in header isn't changed when in Ctrl+B mode
In Ctrl+B mode (Show all files in current dir and all subdirs), when I delete files, the size in header (free disk space) isn't updated. When I switch back to normal view, the size gets updated.

I will check it - my disks are so large that I didn't notice so far. Will have to try on a USB stick.

I have tried it with SizeFooter=0 to sahw bytes in the size header. It seems that you have to delete more than just a few bytes (more than 1k) before Windows reports a change in size.

Maybe because NTFS can store small files completely inside the Master File table.

Interesting, that's really a possibility. I tried with big files, and the header was immediately updated also in Ctrl+B mode.

Alas, for me the header isn't updated (I have "Update header (free disk space)" checked, of course). As soon as I quit Ctrl+B mode, the header is immediately updated. I will try to make video with this behavior.

Beg your pardon... Everything is OK! The thing is that files were moved to Recycle Bin - that's the reason the size wasn't updated!
