These incorrect sizes can also be seen in the Windows Explorer.
This results from a limitation in the server message block (SMB) protocol which unfortunately always returns the information of the host of the share and not the share itself.

Thank you very much for your helpfulness.

The configuration of WER (Windows Error Reporting) to create a user-mode crash dump in case of an application crash is covered in this article from Microsoft in detail.

Basically, you need to create a new registry key for TreeSize.exe and define three values. You can copy these commands and run them in a commandline (cmd.exe) with administrator privileges to create the keys directly. You can also adjust the path to write the crash dumps to (just change D:\TreeSizeDumpFiles\):

reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps\TreeSize.exe" /v DumpType /t REG_DWORD /d 2
reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps\TreeSize.exe" /v DumpCount /t REG_DWORD /d 3
reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps\TreeSize.exe" /v DumpFolder /t REG_EXPAND_SZ /d D:\TreeSizeDumpFiles\

All of our products are being developed in Delphi or C#. Although we use Log4Net with some of the components, they are safe to use, because the reported vulnerability applies to Log4J only.

None of our applications depend on Log4J or any other Java library and are thus not affected by this vulnerability.

This applies to all versions and editions of our applications (TreeSize, SpaceObServer, SpaceObServer WebAccess, HeavyLoad, SmartPOP2Exchange, Exchange Server Toolbox, SpamAssassin in a Box, SpamAssassin for Windows, SmartCallMonitor, SEPA-Transfer, ServerSentinel, and ShellBrowser). It is recommended to always use the latest available versions though to benefit from the latest patches, improvements, and features.

This can happen, if TreeSize has been installed on the system before, but on a partition that no longer exists.

To resolve this issue, please start the installer from a command line (or a Win+R-run prompt) with an additional parameter /DIR="C:\Program Files\JAM Software\TreeSize"

If the search does not return any results, but te search filter have been set corretcly, this could be due to a missing file content reader for Microsoft Office files. The reason for the absence of these handlers is in most cases a non-existent Office installation. 

If you do not want to install Office on your system, Microsoft provides separate filter packs to install these file handlers. These can be downloaded here: https://www.microsoft.com/de-de/download/details.aspx?id=17062

Starting TreeSize from a command line (cmd.exe), you can use the pipe-notation to redirect output from the standard output stream (1) and standard error stream (2) to a file. E.g.:

TreeSize.exe /NOGUI C:\ 1>StdOut.txt 2>StdErr.txt

From the PowerShell, it's recommended to use the Start-Process command with matching parameters:

Start-Process -FilePath .\TreeSize.exe -ArgumentList "/NOGUI C:\" -RedirectStandardOutput ".\StdOut.txt" -RedirectStandardError ".\StdErr.txt"

Yes. TreeSize addresses drives formatted with ReFS using the api provided by Windows. There are no known issues or limitations.

The portable installation is intended for use on a USB stick and cannot simply be moved or copied.

On a virtual machine (VM) the normal licensing conditions apply, therefore the portable installation will not start there.

An exception are the unlimited site, nationwide or worldwide licenses as well as the consultant license: These can be started on any system of the customer without specifying the license key and also without installation.

UltraSearch is optimized for fast searching and finding and offers a simple interface with quick access to the most important search functions, such as folder or file search, exclusion filter, date filter or file type search. The program is intended for "quick searches on demand" and indexes the file information in the system memory for this purpose, for lightning-fast results.

The TreeSize file search is much more flexible and offers you additional search options such as a duplicate search or the search for any metadata. Predefined search settings let you find duplicate, temporary or very large files.
The TreeSize file search not only offers versatile search options, but also offer in addition to the main module a great way to clean up your hard drive.

The implementation of Azure File Sync is meant to be completely transparent for the end-user. Accessing a file usually looks exactly the same with or without Azure File Sync.

TreeSize should be able to scan the server, as usual.

TreeSize will try to work on the metadata of the files/folders, whenever possible. Accessing these metadata will usually not trigger any download in Azure File Sync.

TreeSize will also respect offline files (stubs) and try avoid to trigger a download. This requires the files to be marked with the offline attribute though, which depends on the actual implementation of the scanned system.

If you are in doubt about using TreeSize for your specific configuration, we would recommend to try it on a smaller folder first.
