Yes, you can easily display the folder size in a column, or in the status bar on Windows 11, 10, ... and MS Server OS.




It is really easy to activate the folder size column in the Quad Explorer, there are also additional file management pearls hidden that make it indispensable under all Microsoft Windows and server systems, this function is often used by Windows administrators, but is also found in the newer home Devices, such as MS Surface Pro, more and more followers. 


PS: The whole thing can also be printed out Menu > File > Print!

2.) Number of objects, directory size, size information and information!





The number of objects, directory size, size information and information about directory content in the status bar!  Folder size and number of files 
 
Options for marked objects: 
 
Simple and fast object counting:
The simple object number display, as with the MS Explorer, is of course the fastest, but not the most effective. 
Size of the marked objects:
It is like the simple object number display, but here the total size and number of objects is recorded or displayed. 
 
Size of the marked objects including subfolders:
Everything is recorded here, including subfolders (total size, number of folders, number of files).

3.) What should I consider in the folder size column!




If the directories are very large,

the folder cannot be deleted while determining the folder size. However, the procedure used in Q-Dir is adjusted for speed, so it does not take long until the folder size is determined, PS much faster than the folder size determination by MS Explorer. 

( ... see Image-3 )

This is particularly noticeable with fast SSDs .
