Windows Folder Size In A File Explorer In Windows 7 from www.old-photo.com

When i had windows xp (professional edition), it would display this down there, but not so with vista. Folder size explorer extension adds a new column to the details view in windows explorer. With this photo within the parent directory, windows properties reported the parent folder contained 44,743 files & 4813 folders occupying 13.3 gb.

Folder size is a small but very useful shell extension designed to show folder size in windows explorer. I would like to know if windows 7 includes the option to view folder size in the explorer window interface (an option similar to viewing file size)? Not a fix but a workaround. Shows sizes of folders seen in explorer windows!
