More Specific Filesize on Windows

Question

I'm working between an FTP client and a regular local windows folder. My ftp client in displaying files in "details" mode and showing items like this:

 Filename          Filesize          Filetype
+--------------------------------------------+
 main.php          5,988             PHP File

The filesize shows me a more specific number than my local windows "details" view:

 Filename          Filesize 
+--------------------------+
 main.php          6KB

Is there a configuration within my folder-view which will tell me specifically (or more-specifically) how many bytes the file consists of? This helps determining which files are larger when looking between the two views, but when my local view rounds up the number, I can't be completely sure which is larger without going in and checking properties specifically, which is too tasking when you're examining a folder of items.

Answer 1

You can't change the display from kilobytes to bytes in Windows Explorer.

I'm using Total Commander instead, which is showing the size down to the very last byte. :)

Oh, and it also is a FTP client ... and you'll have the option to compare files (by size or content)

Answer 2

xplorer² has this functionality, although explorer does not have the ability to change that default behaviour:
