About
Vacuon finds where the space on a Windows disk went. It reads the NTFS Master File
Table straight off the volume, which indexes a million files in seconds instead of
minutes, and falls back to the Windows API on volumes where that is not possible.
Images and videos are shown as thumbnails in six sizes, so you can tell which of five
large renders is the final one without opening any of them. Deletion goes to the Recycle
Bin by default, and permanently only behind a confirmation you have to tick, with a
protection list that refuses the volume root, Windows, System32 and kernel-owned files.
Every scan cross-checks the space it attributed to files against what the volume reports
as used, and says so when the two disagree.
The interface is available in English and Portuguese. The fast path needs Administrator;
without it the app still works through the slower traversal and says which one it used.

Security
No known CVEs for Vacuon.
Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
