As the name of the program clearly suggests, Find Empty Folders is designed to help you detect the folders that don't contain any files.

This way, you will have the chance to clean your computer from useless folder registrations, which just clutter your system for no reason.

The application comes with a simple and user-friendly interface, so that anyone can manage it with ease. You don't need to look for additional features elsewhere than on the main window, since there aren't any hidden menus or settings to discover. In fact, there is only one selectable option – namely, the scanning process may or may not include searching for invisible folders.

However, loading a specific folder for scanning is done exclusively by drag-and-drop. For a complete computer search, you have the ability to select the entire hard disk. Once the scan is over, the results found will be displayed on the list panel. You have the chance to reveal the folders' content in Finder, so that you can check whether they are really empty or contain invisible files. Then you can move the selections to send to the recycle bun with just one click. Afterwards, you can repeat the scanning process to be sure that there are no more empty folders to delete.

The program is good, since it really detects the folders that don't store any files or that include files marked as invisible. It offers a simple and quick solution to clean your computer from useless empty folders. The fact that the utility is available for free is a good argument for using this tool from time to time.
