Version 9.51 file folder size has bug

Post by *waifile »

Windows Explorer shows the file folder size 31.3GB.
But Total Commander 9.51 shows size 38.5KB only!

It would be valueable if you could provide a screenshot that shows both the incorrect number as well as the directory itself, so we can gain an understanding of where and in which context/situation you saw the issue appearing.

Without more information it's hard to tell whether you just misread something, or if there is really something incorrectly displayed. And in case there has been something inaccurately displayed in TC, your description is still way too brief to allow us inferring the actual label/UI element your post is referring to.

Not believed at all.
No one can verify what you said without better information what you are displaying.

sometimes "everything" does not work properly with bigger files, it simply doesn't count them.
if i use space bar in TC to get the size i get the same wrong size reported by "everything".
it could be that.

but CTRL-L still reports the proper value.

1. "Everything" is only used for calculations with space bar if it's enabled in Configuration - Options - Operation, checkbox "Everything".
2. TC doesn't count hidden and/or system folders when they are not displayed. Please go to Configuration - Options - Display and enable hidden and system files.
