#### Directory Size Profiler - Hierarchical Folder Disk Usage Report

Directory Size Profiler is a graphical disk-usage reporter that works like the du command. A
lightweight Linux alternative to the Sysinternals DU utility for finding what fills a folder.

Features:

* Scans any folder (default: your home) with real filesystem calls, counting disk blocks
  actually used, apparent size, file counts and hard links once.
* Expandable directory tree with sizes and percent-of-parent shading.
* Largest files list and per-extension usage report.
* Open a folder in your file manager, delete a selected folder (with confirmation) and export CSV.
* Optional stay-on-one-filesystem mode. Folders the sandbox or permissions cannot read are counted as unreadable.

## Enable snaps on Kubuntu and install Directory Size Profiler

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

If you’re running [Kubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)](https://kubuntu.org/) or later, including [Kubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu) and [Kubuntu 18.10 (Cosmic Cuttlefish)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CosmicCuttlefish/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.

Versions of Kubuntu between [14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr)](https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-14-04-lts) and [15.10 (Wily Werewolf)](https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-15-10) don’t include *snap* by default, but *snap* can be installed from the command line as follows:
