Description

Download of Find Empty Folders 1.3.1 for Mac was available from the developer's website when we last checked. We cannot confirm if there is a free download of this app available. The program's installation file is commonly found as findemptyfolders.zip.

The actual developer of this free software for Mac is Thomas Tempelmann. We recommend checking the downloaded files with any free antivirus. Find Empty Folders for Mac lies within System Tools, more precisely File Managers. The most popular version among the program users is 1.0. You can launch this free application on Mac OS X 10.6.0 or later.

From the developer:

This simple (and currently free) program finds empty folders on your computer.

There are many solutions for this task around, but they all lack one important capability: Folders that appear empty but yet contain a hidden ".DS_Store" file are not found by them.

Therefore, this tool considers a folder empty even if it contains just a .DS_Store file.

You may want to check out more software for Mac, such as File Finder - sort&find files, File Finder Lite - sort&find files or Easy Find, which might be related to Find Empty Folders.

Have used this wonderful tool for several years. It's simple and works flawlessly.On my Mac Mini 2020 M1 I can use FINDER to search for folders with NO CONTENT. The issue is that the MAC sometimes blocks searches that are repeated another time.
