How to see free HD space on Mountain Lion

I have never thought I would need that, but found myself explaining the thing to my daughter the other day.

So here is an idea. By default on Mountain Lion there is no indication of drive's free space. If you area used to have it, open Finder / View and click to "Show Status Bar", as shown on the picture.


Now, carry on.

  2. Don't forget if you want to make this sticky and apply across other folders: click the cog icon in a Finder window, select Show View Options and then click Use as Defaults.
