Disk Space Management Application

Overview

The Disk Space Management Application is a powerful tool designed to help users efficiently manage their disk space. It provides comprehensive insights into space utilization, allows file detection, and empowers users to take actions to free up disk space. With this application, users can easily visualize their disk space usage, identify large and duplicate files, and quickly delete files to optimize their storage.

Features

Essential Features

  1. Display Disk Space: The application will display the amount of free space available on the disk and the total space utilized.

  2. Space Utilization Breakdown: Users can view a detailed breakdown of space utilization based on drives, paths, and file types (e.g., video, images, documents).

  3. Duplicate File Detection: The application will identify and list duplicate files, enabling users to remove redundant data.

  4. Large File Identification: Users can easily identify and view large files that are consuming significant disk space.

  5. Scan Specific File Types: Users have the option to scan and view specific file types for better organization and cleanup.

  6. Efficient Deletion: Once the insights are available, the application will allow faster and efficient deletion of files and folders. Users can select specific file types to delete, freeing up space in a targeted manner.

Additional Features (To be implemented)

  1. File Preview: Enable users to preview files before deleting them, ensuring they are removing the right files.

  2. Backup and Restore: Provide the option to back up selected files before deletion and offer a restore feature to recover files if needed.

  3. Scheduled Scans: Allow users to schedule automatic disk scans to keep track of changing disk space usage over time.

  4. Interactive Data Visualization: Use charts and graphs to present disk space utilization data in an intuitive and visually appealing manner.

  5. Advanced Filters: Implement filters to sort files by date, size, type, etc., to help users pinpoint specific files for deletion.
