Long integer is 4 Bytes long and range from -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647
therefore if it > 2GB its value interpreted as negative

1- an option to exclude files and show folders size only
2- an option to change the plugin behaviour to show the size of the folders in the current folder and the quick veiw remain static even if i change the selected folder EX: if i in C:\Windows and press Ctrl+Q then the quick view panel show the size of all subfolders under C:\Windows and refreshed only if there is any subfolder deleted
this would be very useful to easy clean the current folder from large subfolder; I hope this can be easy to implement!
@Clas Hortien In fact there is bug in my code, I'll find workaround. Thanks for pointing me to this.

Add an alternative chart view with bars, which shows the size for groups of files, grouped by file type:
a) Grouped by extension (e.g. one bar for all TXT files, one for all EXE etc.) or
b) Grouped by user defined filegroups (e.g. one bar for all "Audio" files, one for all "Graphic" files etc.)
b1) Filegroups could be defined in in a (some) new section(s) of DirSize's INI-file or
b2) Filegroups could be read from wincmd.ini (section "[searches]", keys "{name}_SearchFor=")
Could be useful for choosing the best suited archiver ("mostly compressable multimedia files? OK, let's take SBC or ZipStar"), for instance.

I like this idea very much. Unfortunately I cannot promise that it'll be implemented quickly… Maybe in next major relase.
Just a new wish...
Is it possible to make it easily translatable...(with a Language.lng text file)
"B","KB", "MB", "GB", "Actual files in ", "Directory is empty", ...
Thanks in advance

Just got a tiny request:
Would it be possible to show the overall size of the actual directory somewhere in the window, e.g. like in this (fake) screeenshot?

Is it really need to translate only "Actual files in ", "Directory is empty" ?
