What DiskScope is

DiskScope is a free, open-source desktop app for examining disk usage, locating files, and uninstalling applications. Its scans cover files, folders, and apps in parallel, with results shown in a sortable table, a tree explorer, or a zoomable treemap. It reports application sizes and file-type breakdowns, and its fuzzy search can filter by type, extension, size, and modified date. The maker says search is designed to remain smooth beyond 100,000 rows. DiskScope measures actual disk usage, including for sparse and compressed files. Deleted items go to the Recycle Bin; emptying it permanently clears contents after confirmation. On Windows, the Applications tab shows uninstall commands before launching programs’ native uninstallers. Disk analysis and search are available on Windows, Linux, and macOS, but uninstalling apps and emptying the bin are Windows-only. The app runs locally, according to its maker, with no telemetry and only an update-check network request. Windows 10/11 x64, macOS 12 or later, and Linux x64 downloads are listed; the macOS and Linux builds are marked experimental and not tested yet. DiskScope is MIT licensed.

Who it suits

DiskScope suits people who want to find large files or review disk usage across Windows, Linux, or macOS. Windows users can also use it to launch installed applications’ native uninstallers.
