My harddrive is approaching capacity and I'd like to find all the large folders on the drive to delete them manually. I searched for a way to do this and a lot of 3rd party utilities came up, but I was surprised I couldn't find a native win7 way of doing it. I don't have to do this often so I'd prefer not to install a tool specifically for this. I just need a listing of all folders that exceed a certain size.

I have been programming almost daily since earlier this year, and I have noticed a large amount of files being downloaded and uploaded in my gui. I believe that it is related to all of my code work being stored in my Documents, which are connected to my iCloud. Though, it never really seems to make substantial progress. I have been working and installing dependencies, create-react-apps and such.
How can I fix this before it becomes too much and avoid it in the future?
my current gui showing files
If you go to the folder where your code and dependencies are, you can just create an empty file named .nosync. This will flag your iCloud to don't sync this folder with your online storage.

I just want to see files and folders (sorted/grouped by their name) in a list that does NOT separate files and folders.
I also don't want to order by date modified like here.
I already tried several solutions. But unfortunaletly non worked. And I don't want to use grouped by that splits it up into A-G... and so on.
xplorer² was able to solve this issue. Anyway I'm still interested in doing this in the Windows explorer without any external tools.
Just wrote a German Tutorial about this and xplorer². It should be easy to understand also for non-Germans. ;)

I do not have enough space on my disk, I would like to know if I can delete the Temp files of the Windows directory>Temp>tmp0000*
Yes, anything in that temp directory is safe to delete.
All they are created for is to temporarily contain information and is not required to have on your hard-drive constantly.

I've got third party Winamp plug-in in windows, that should be able to load its datafile.
The datafile is located in same folder as the plug-in, but can not be found. My idea is that plug-in searches in some pre-defined path. So I need somehow to find out what file read attempt is done to place file in the appropriate place.
Best way to do this is to use Process Monitor from Sysinternals suite (http://technet.microsoft.com/sysinternals/bb896645)
Set up filters to watch only the examined program and look for 'CreateFile' operations, which are also read attempts.

I foolishly ran the following code
file.remove(list.files())
Is there any way of retrieving the deleted files. I am working in windows XP + R 2.15.0
You need to get a NTFS (or FAT32, though unlikely) file recovery software. Restoration and Undelete Plus are a few of them
