Piechart Disk3.34

From viruses and malware to running applications that require too many resources there are many reasons why your computer seems to be working slower than usual. At times, the culprit can be that you simply do not have enough space on the drives for the program's temporary files.Piechart Disk is a utility that enables you to find out which applications require the most space, so you can decide on your next step.

Old-fashioned and simplistic interface

While the information is displayed on a pie-chart, the colors and overall appearance of the interface look plain and outdated.After the scan is complete, the app displays a list of the installed programs sorted with the largest files and directories at the top. You can click on the plus or minus icons to further view the contents of the folders if necessary.Even though you can see the directories' content, you cannot take any action and it could be useful if Piechart Disk allowed you to delete certain folders or find out more about certain files.

Rugged and slow functionality

It is necessary to mention that the application has a low responsiveness while performing the specified scanning. Moreover, it can get stuck or have a slow responsiveness during a larger directory scan.What is more, it does not include any stop or pause feature, so you cannot do much but wait for several minutes until it finishes scanning, depending on the size of the selected directory.It could support more file formats, especially since you can save logs and load the reports of hard disk use as TXT files. Lastly, you should know that the size of a report of a modern hard disk of 400 GB can exceed 10 MB.

An option for computer running on older operating systems

In all fairness, using a single-purpose application to check out the hard disk usage on a computer that can run the latest operating systems does not make much sense. On the other hand, Piechart Disk can prove helpful if you have an older machine.
