WHAT IS DISKSTATE?
__________________________________________________________________
This program reports the current state of your disks:
Total MegaBytes, GigaBytes, the amount of space used and free,
and the useable swap space (or memory usage). Furthermore, one
can browse through the folder structure with an intuitive pie
chart showing relative folder space used.
DiskState can also eliminate space wasted after program crashes
or by temporary files no longer needed.
The Duplicate Finder of DiskState uses e.g. a powerful 128-bit
MD5 technology to track down redundant files. Even if the file
names are different, DiskState identifies duplicates by content
and displays duplicates in a comprehensive list.
Got a lot of MP3s, image files and other multimedia duplicates?
Then DiskState can help you with an easy-to-use wizard to
remove those hogging duplicate multimedia files!
Next, DiskState can capture the state of all files recursively
in a folder tree. This enables the user to compare old states
with newly captured ones. Ideally for detecting changes in
files, deleted and added files in a given folder structure.
Reports can be generated to find e.g. the oldest files, zip
files etc. on a disk volume. The whole report generator is
user-customizable. Adding new reports is simple.
DiskState provides a deletion engine for scheduling cleanups
regularly.
A cool tool to extract boot blocks in a multi-boot environment.
This is useful if e.g. a Windows OS installer erased your
Linux or another boot menu block. You can for instance add
Linux, BeOS, OS/2, Vista and over 200 known boot blocks to your
Windows NT/2000/XP boot menu.

DiskState has various cleanup tools. One example is the
"Cover Your Tracks" to remove traces you leave after surfing
the web. The includes a nifty Cookie Manager: Remove cookies
selectively using sub-string matches, all-at-once or by manual
selections.
All in all, this is a small but powerful tool to analyze and
tidy your computer in a nice safe way.
