It would be nice to have an option to search for empty folders with "Folder Size" being 0 bytes. I have a lot of those on my File Server. :rolleyes:

It would tidy up things especially in situations where synchronisation doesn't delete folders only the contents in them.

However, sometimes, programs require folders even if there is nothing in them. When in use the programs place files in these folders temporarily. Deleting the folder may cause the program to crash.
