[dba-Tech] Empty folders

http://www.memecode.com/idisk.php 

This tool can come handy to.
It inventorizes the space usage on your disk.
You can find empty or small folders this way to.
Or find the folder using the most space..

I use it regulary on my music collection...

If you xcopy the whole directory structure and use the /S option it will
copy sub-folders but NOT empty ones. You could copy all your music to a
different major directory name, make sure it did what you want, then
delete or rename the original one and rename back to the original name.

You also could do something with a utility like Karen's Directory
Printer - part of Karen's Power Tools utilities - available at
http://www.karenware.com/powertools/powertools.asp

I have used it to extract file directory stuff into text files
