Pros
Pro Can help sleep better
Helps provide better sleep for more energy during the day.
Pro Eases eye strain
Decreases color temperature at night, changing the normally fluorescent blue of an LCD monitor to a soft orange. Much easier on the eyes, especially in a low-light environment.
Pro Subtle transition
The transition from daytime to nighttime color modes takes an hour by default and will detect your current timezone, meaning that it will happen in the background at sunset, often without you noticing.
Pro Exceptionally fast for NTFS drives
Because it reads the master file table (MFT) directly from NTFS file system.
Pro Free
There is no limitation to using it.
Pro Multiple view such as tree view, tree map, extension view, file view
Unlike other similar apps, which usually only offer single view, this app offers multiple views.
Pro Handles "hard linked" files correctly - doesn't count them more than once
WizTree is faster and much more accurate than all the others as it properly handles hard linked files (doesn't count them more than once) so the total allocated size reported by WizTree will actually match the space used on the drive as reported by Windows.
Cons
Con Takes a while to get used to
After installing F.lux, the screen will look a lot more yellow. This takes about a week to fully get used to. You can ease into it by setting the color temps higher than the recommended defaults.
Con Intended for NTFS only
It'll work with any other file system but with the same speed as any generic space analyzer.
