JonLef 0 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 I've had notification I'm nearly using all my quota, so I want to view notes by filesize, so I can delete accordingly. Thanks Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,074 Posted July 5, 2023 Level 5* Share Posted July 5, 2023 Hi. Your notes don't affect your quotas. There's a limit on uploads and on note size. Deleting existing notes does not reduce the amount uploaded. See FAQ for upload limits for more 1 Link to comment
claynichols2015 3 Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 I'm running out of space on my local drive and want to delete some large notes. How do I view my largest notes? Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,834 Posted July 10, 2023 Level 5 Share Posted July 10, 2023 You can make the file size show as a column in the notes view panel. Right click on the header, select size. AFAIK you can’t sort by this column. But usually you can watch out for the biggies. The better option would be to get a second drive, and install the entire EN database there. You need to use a symlink to do this. There are descriptions in the forum, and about using symlinks in Google. An option to move the database by settings is under development. 2 Link to comment
Mike P 2,982 Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 I agree with @PinkElephantthat you can't sort on the column, so it is a matter of scrolling through to find the large notes. I'm guessing that most of your large notes contain attachments, so filtering for those notes that contain attachments might help. You can also filter for specific types of attachments - if you know that you have notes containing large office files for example. Link to comment
claynichols2015 3 Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Can you filter on Size > X ? (BTW, this is a laptop, so can't install another drive Link to comment

Dashok 0 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 There used to be a feature to sort by file size, but it's missing from the recent version (just recently upgraded) This feature helped me remove empty or small notes. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,074 Posted July 20, 2023 Level 5* Share Posted July 20, 2023 Hi. File size is visible but not sortable in the Notes list window. I don't see any benefit to removing empty or small notes as an exercise - by all means deal with them when you see them in normal searches or editing, but you gain nothing - not even any local hard drive space - by deleting them.
