The MFT is a special hidden file used by the NTFS file system to keep track of all files and folders on a hard drive. When scanning NTFS formatted hard drives (most modern hard drives use this format), WizTree reads the hard drive's Master File Table (MFT) directly from the disk. WizTree is great for identifying big apps or files you can delete to recover space on your storage drive. WizTree scans your storage drives in real time and lets you visualize how your files and folders are structured and which files are taking the most space. Other recommended disk space analyzers for Windows include Space Sniffer, DiskSavvy, WinDirStat and TreeSize.

Are there other good alternatives to WizTree?

WizTree is Windows only, but an alternative for macOS called GrandPerspective works similarly. If you want to use it commercially, you can purchase a 'supporter code' or an enterprise license. Storage devices in phones and cameras can also be scanned when connected via USB. WizTree scans all hard drive types supported by Windows (NTFS, FAT, FAT32, network, etc). Use the information WizTree provides to quickly locate and remove 'space hogs' from your hard drive.

Your entire hard drive's file system is displayed visually, making it very easy to locate large files and folders. It scans your hard drive and shows you which files and folders are using the most disk space. WizTree is a high speed disk space analyzer utility for Windows.
