The File menu allows you to select folders for scanning, to remove folders from the TreeSize Professional Window and to print or export the collected data.

Select Directory

Shows a dialog which lets you choose a folder for scanning. After pressing OK TreeSize Professional starts scanning the selected path. You can also enter a path directly into the drive combo box in the toolbar.

Load XML Report

Opens a XML report that has been saved earlier. That way you can view earlier results without performing a whole scan again.

Save XML Report

Save the information of the current file system branch to a XML file. This file can be loaded in TreeSize Professional again or can be used to perform a comparison at a later time. TreeSize Professional ships with a XSLT file that formats the data inside the XML file for output in a browser that supports XSLT processing (e.g. Firefox >V1.0 or Internet Explorer >V5.5). Please note that the information about single files is not saved to the XML because this would increase the size of the XML files too much. Thus only the information about folders is included in the file. If you need reporting on file level, our software SpaceObServer may be useful for you.

Compare With XML Report

Loads a saved XML report and compares it to the current one by "subtracting" the old size information from the current one. That way folders unchanged in size will show up with a size of 0 after the comparison, folders that have grown will have values greater than 0 and will be displayed in red color. Folders that became smaller compared to the loaded report will have negative values and will be displayed in green color. Please note that since the information about individual files is not included in the XML reports, the detailed view will not show the change of the size of individual files.

Export

Only available in the Professional Edition. See chapter Export Submenu.

Set Title

Allows you to set a title for the currently active branch which will be used when the folder data is printed or exported. The default title includes the path of the scanned folder and the volume name of the drive where the folder resides in.
