The script takes the folder name and searches the Active Directory for a corresponding user.

I compiled a vbscript that loops through all the sub folders of a given folder and print out the size. The script takes the folder name and searches the Active Directory for a corresponding user. If found it prints the name of the user in the output.

Use:

cscript homedirsize.vbs

Three input boxes will appear...

  1. Path where the homedir folders are located. E.g., d:\home
  2. Width, in characters, of the first output column.
  3. Width, in characters, of the second output column.
