program/trick in file manager to count number of files in a folder (recursive)

[urlwolf]

This must be an easy one...
you can get this kind of stats for dirs, one by one, in explorer, but it takes a while when there are many files.

Is there a program/trick in a file manager (e.g. Dopus) to count number of files in a folder (recursive)?

That'd help me planning my 'home' before I apply a serious backup strategy on a server.
Thanks

You mean something like right clicking the folder in Explorer, selecting properties?

It lists how many files...and how many subfolders...and how much space it is taking up.

yes, like that, but recursive, example:
A - 200 files
    X 100
    Y  25
    z  75

That's the idea.

to answer my own question:
in Dopus, rightclick the gray fields on top of each column in the listers (the one that has name| size | etc). select more. add Files (total).

Sorting by Files (total) didn't work but it's pretty close.

When I do cleanups and need some stats, I use http://windirstat.info


Note: there's a lot of color banding because I saved in 256-color mode, jpeg version wasn't much prettier at the same filesize. App looks a lot better in real life
