[Ham-Computers] Counting Files

[R Goodspeed (W7DGX)]

Using the windows explorer (Windows key + E) I have noted the following:

right click on a drive, then select properties. That will tell you the amount of
space left on a disk.

However,
Right click on a folder, then select properties. That will tell you the disk space
occupied and files in in that folder and all sub folders.
