Calculate Folder Size on offline files for Dropbox
Posted: 2020 May 30, 10:57
Hi!
I am a long time user of xPlorer2, but have recently started using the "Smart Sync" feature of Dropbox, that keeps files "online only" until they are accessed on the computer. Very useful since our broadband connection is now really swift!
It is possible to select an entire folder and right-click and do -> Online Only. Works well.
However - my problem is with xPlorer2's Calculate Folder Size. It appears to me that the online-only files are still calculated as taking up disk space when using the Calculate Folder Size. Is it so, or am I looking at it wrongly?
Could it be fixed? The Calculate Folder Size is incredibly useful when hunting for folders taking up all that precious harddisk space.
Regards
Carl
