File count and folder size?
Hi, i cant find the folder size and file count info for my folders online. Where can i see that? Should it not be visible in the folder tree on the login page?
I have to make a quick comparison bet...

It's totally ridiculous that it's impossible to view the simple number of files in a folder, much the less total size of the files in that folder.
You mean like this:
And this:
Just select all files in a folder and you'll get the total number of items selected. For folder size, change one of the column headers to Size, select the folder, then click Calculate size from the menu on the right.
This is outrageous. File count and folder and file size are the most basic of information. I wonder if Google Drive offers this.

Folder size is now available on the Dropbox website.
Thank you, Rich, for this information. It was certainly not an intuitive find on the site, and it appears to be a partial solution at best. I followed the instructions and attempted to get the size information for several folders. Two smallish ones calculated size quickly. One larger one (58 Gb) took three minutes. Two more, one which shouldn't be very big at all and another which should be larger, are still calculating after over an hour.
