Highlights of ShowSize 5
Officially supports Vista:
* Detects and suggests running as administrator when required for advanced usage.
* Contains utilities to install menus in Explorer with proper Vista permission prompts.
* Unused Files report discontinued! A major Windows Vista related change is that we have discontinued Unused Files report and Used Date column for the reasons mentioned in the help Topic "Report discontinued." The report appears on earlier Windows systems but with a severe warning because the report can still be useless for volumes shared with Windows Vista computers.
New, redesigned scanning, reporting and filtering engine:
* New design ensures that we can easily add new reports in future based on your suggestions.
* Elimination of System and Hidden items now does not require a rescan but just a change in the filters.
* Symbolic link skipping is now supported (but not in ShowSize PE).
