Abstract
A method and system for counting files and directories in a New-Technology-File-System (NTFS) volume that are relevant to a computerized process is described. One illustrative embodiment counts bits corresponding to used MFT entries in a Master File Table (MFT) bitmap associated with the NTFS volume to obtain a first count; counts one or more files or directories in the NTFS volume that are not relevant to the computerized process to obtain a second count; subtracts the second count from the first count to obtain a count of files and directories in the NTFS volume that are relevant to the computerized process; and displays a progress indicator that indicates, with the passage of time, what proportion of the files and directories included in the count of files and directories in the NTFS volume that are relevant to the computerized process has been processed by the computerized process.
