Amazing Straightforward Plugin

No ads, no fluff, just does what it says. One click and it will scan your site to show you what files are taking up the most space.
I couldn't for the life of me figure out what files were taking up so much space on a client site until I ran this plugin. It found a super old backup file from a backup plugin that was never deleted totaling over 7GB of disk space.
Understand that it will not delete the files for you. You will still have to manually delete them on your own, but it will pinpoint what the files are and where they're located so you don't have to manually go through every single file and folder on your sever.
Very useful plugin

My WordPress site was getting close to storage allowance, this plugin helped me quickly find folders and files that were taking up a lot of disk space. Removed the files and I'm now back within my allowance.
Thanks for a great plugin
