Is there a way to search for files by their size on disk?
EG - on OneDrive files can be 'Available Online only', 'Available' or 'Always Available'
If they are 'Online Only' you can see the file, but it is not physically on the local disk. When you look at file properties, it shows the files real filesize, and the filesize on the local drive (zero bytes if the file is online only).
I want to search a folder, and all its subfolders for all the files that are physically on the local drive. File Explorer search by size reports the actual size of the real file, not the size of the file on the local drive.
(Yes, I can do this by viewing the icons of the files in file explorer; but I don't want to have to physically go through every folder and subfolder (there could be hundreds) looking for the 'green tick' icons!)
Thanks in advance,
Uptix
