Dashboard-first analysis
Investigate storage like an interactive dashboard.
Zenovix does not stop at a static folder tree or treemap. Its Analysis dashboard lets you cross filter storage results by categories, Sunburst segments, size bands, file types, folders and review lists so you can understand the pattern before taking action. Simple Mode keeps the dashboard focused on storage impact and next steps; Advanced Mode adds timeline, candidate and technical breakdowns.
Try the idea right here. The mini dashboard on this page uses sample data, but the cross filtering works the same way it does in the app: click a category or a size band and everything else narrows to match.

Advanced review
Use Advanced review when similar files need slower decisions.
Fuzzy Matching is exposed in Advanced Mode because similar files need more context than exact duplicates. The refreshed review screen keeps group paging, selected-group keep rules and file preview close together before any action is applied.
Verified operations
Review first. Apply file actions deliberately.
Zenovix keeps scan, analysis and duplicate review separate from actions that save, export, archive, recycle, delete or restore files after you have reviewed the results.
Follow a guided storage review path.
Simple Mode keeps the left rail focused on Choose folders, See results, Check duplicates, Review files, Empty folders and Clean up, with sensible exact-match defaults.
Expose the deeper controls when needed.
Advanced Mode shows scan settings, metadata and fuzzy matching options, a detailed workflow rail and advanced analysis views for timeline, candidate and technical breakdowns.
Click visuals to narrow the files in focus.
Dashboard selections create a persistent analysis scope that follows you from visual file exploration into review, with filter chips and Clear filters available for quick reset.
Review exact, fuzzy and file-level decisions.
Exact and fuzzy duplicate review use group paging, selected-group keep rules and a separate Review Files screen for final file-level checks before Execute.
Apply file actions after review.
Cleanup actions, including duplicate removal, archive, Recycle Bin and permanent delete, sit behind evidence, selection and confirmation.
Keep archived items visible and restorable.
Archive records are manifest-backed so the Recovery Centre can inspect previous jobs, preview restore paths and recover selected files later.
Everyday cleanup jobs
Made for real Windows storage problems.
From duplicate photos to a full Downloads folder, Zenovix shows exactly what is using your disk space and helps you decide what to do about it.
Duplicate photos across cloud folders
Find exact matches and keep similar files separate for slower review.
Full Downloads folder
Surface large and old files worth checking first.
Large archive drive
Use Fast Scan when speed matters, or save Pro reviews so they can continue later.
Files you are unsure about
Archive reviewed files before removing them.
Need a record
Export CSV review reports when you need a record.
How it works
From first scan to safe cleanup in five steps.
Find large files and duplicate content quickly, then review everything before any file changes are made.
Choose folders
Select focused Windows folders or drives. Common Windows and cloud roots appear first, and Fast Scan can use NTFS metadata scanning in Administrator Mode when you want a faster storage overview.
See results
Simple Mode gives a guided path through storage impact, removable duplicates, largest category, largest folder, Recent Growth and empty folders.
Go advanced
Advanced Mode exposes scan rules, fuzzy matching, timeline views, candidate breakdowns, Sunburst drill-up and detailed cross-filtering.
Review files
Use Exact Duplicates, Advanced Fuzzy Matching, Review Files and Empty Folder Review to mark items as Keep or Clean up before anything changes.
Apply reviewed actions
Free can recycle or delete reviewed files after confirmation. Pro adds saved scans, CSV exports, recoverable Archive and Recovery Centre workflows.
Archive workflow
Copy, verify, record, then act.
Archive is the recovery-aware path. Zenovix is designed to copy reviewed files into an archive location, verify the operation, and record manifest-backed archive details before you consider further action.
Move reviewed items into a user-selected archive location.
Report skipped, locked, missing or failed files instead of hiding them.
Create archive records that Recovery Centre can inspect later.
Choose archive, Recycle Bin or permanent delete with clear recovery limits.
Reliable scans, reviewed storage decisions.
Zenovix can inspect thousands of files, but the interface avoids scare tactics. It surfaces evidence, separates higher-risk choices, and keeps recovery visible where archive records are available.
- Exact duplicate review keeps one retained file in each group before selected copies are marked for removal.
- Simple Mode uses SHA-256 and same-size matching by default, with system, read-only and hidden files excluded.
- Interactive dashboard filtering, Sunburst drill-up and current filter chips make the active analysis scope visible.
- Advanced Fuzzy Matching stays separated because lower-confidence results deserve slower, user-controlled review.
- Saved scans can be loaded later so complex reviews do not need to happen in one session.
- CSV reports can record the review status of each scanned file for audit, sharing or offline checking.
- Archive, Recycle Bin and permanent delete have different recovery limits, shown as separate choices.
- Cloud-only, inaccessible, locked, missing and skipped files are treated as expected states.
- Progress, current file, phase and final outcome messaging keep long scans from feeling opaque.
What Zenovix is not.
Zenovix is not a speed booster, registry cleaner, antivirus tool or automatic one button cleanup utility. It is a Windows storage review tool for people who want to understand files before archiving, recycling or deleting them.
Privacy-first, local-only processing.
Keep your data private. Zenovix operates on your local machine with no cloud uploads and no unnecessary data exposure.
- Local-only processing for storage analysis and duplicate detection.
- No cloud upload of scanned files, names, paths or scan results to Zenovix.
- User-controlled scan scope, review choices and cleanup actions.
Why Zenovix fits careful storage management.
Zenovix Storage Manager was built to give Windows users control, not pressure. Storage inspection, duplicate review and cleanup decisions all stay visible before anything changes.
Archive before delete
Archive can copy reviewed files to a recoverable location and create manifest-backed records before you consider permanent deletion.
Evidence-first review
Every reviewed action is backed by clear evidence. See duplicate groups, file sizes, paths and ages before deciding what to do.
Restore previews
Recovery Centre workflows show exactly what will be restored and where. Preview restore paths before confirming recovery.
No scare tactics
Zenovix does not use alarming warnings, fake risk scores or countdown timers to pressure you into removing files. Storage insights are presented honestly and calmly.
User control before cleanup
No cleanup action archives, recycles or deletes files without your explicit confirmation. You review, select and approve every action.
Start with the free review tools. Unlock actions when needed.
Zenovix is useful before you pay for anything: scan folders, inspect storage pressure and review duplicate candidates locally. Pro is for saving larger reviews, reporting through the CLI and applying recoverable decisions after review.

Safe command line automation for storage analysis.
Zenovix CLI is a Pro feature for read-only storage analysis, scheduled reporting and exports. It complements the desktop app; cleanup, archive, restore and Recovery Centre workflows stay in Zenovix Storage Manager.
Built for reporting
Use the CLI when you want Windows storage CLI automation, PowerShell storage reporting or scheduled storage analysis without opening the full desktop workflow.
- Read-only storage analysis
- Scheduled scans using Windows Task Scheduler
- Reusable scan plans and saved profiles run by ID
- Storage History Workbooks and ODBC database export
- Excel, CSV and JSON exports
- Local drives, NAS devices and network shares
- Power BI friendly reporting
Read-only by design
The CLI never deletes, archives, restores, moves, renames, cleans or modifies user files. Use the desktop application for review-first cleanup, archive, restore and recovery workflows.
- Available with Zenovix Pro
- Free users can still run help and version commands
- Designed for storage analysis, exports and workbook history
- Full documentation is available in the CLI manual section
Built for scale
Scan a whole drive in seconds.
A Fast Scan can inventory a full Windows system drive — over 700,000 files across 165,000 folders — in around five seconds, then write an Excel report you can open straight away. Speed depends on your hardware, but Fast Scan is built to stay quick at real-world scale.
- 716,942 files scanned
- 635.99 GB storage mapped
- ~5s fast scan time
Reports that open straight in Excel and your BI tools.
Every CLI scan can write a formatted Excel workbook — summary, top folders, extensions, categories and ready-made charts — alongside CSV and JSON for pipelines. Open results in Microsoft Excel, load them into Power BI, or feed them to PowerShell and your own reporting.
Append each scan to a Storage History Workbook to snapshot results and track storage growth, duplicate changes, top folders and cleanup activity over time. Schedule it with Windows Task Scheduler and every run adds another point of history you can compare.
For long-term storage history, export immutable scan snapshots to ODBC-compatible databases for trend analysis and BI reporting — with sensitive connection credentials protected by Windows Credential Manager.
ODBC storage history
A clear database schema for scheduled storage history.
Zenovix Pro can run a saved scan plan with Windows Task Scheduler, then write each read-only CLI result to an ODBC-compatible database. Related tables keep scan totals, categories, top folders, extensions, duplicates, skipped files and cleanup history available for reporting and trend analysis.
