List Newest Files Of A Drive Or Folder With Drive Sort

There are many programs that can display the largest files of a hard drive or folder in Windows. Folder Size, Treesize or Fosix are just three of the programs that we have reviewed in the past that can display the largest files of a folder or hard drive.

Drive Sort on the other hand can do that as well plus display the newest files of a folder or hard drive which can come in handy in numerous occasions.

The portable software program for the Windows operating system will display either the 100 newest or 100 largest files of the selected folder or drive.

Both operations can be completed in two steps. The computer user needs to select a drive letter or folder of a local hard drive first and then if Drive Sort shall sort the files by size or date.

The process completes in a few seconds, sometimes more than that depending on the files stored in the selected folder or on the hard drive.

The top 100 files are then displayed in the program’s interface with their filename, size, date of creation and file path. A double-click on a file will open it with the default viewer, a right-click can be used to either open the files as well or open the folder containing the selected file.

Drive Sort is a tiny 9 Kilobyte application that is compatible with all 32-bit and 64-bit editions of the Microsoft Windows operating system. The software can be downloaded directly from the developer’s website.
