WinDirStat is a great alternative, and it's FOSS.
Also gives you a nice view illustrating the folder and file sizes
Unfortunately, WinDirStat is essentially abandoned... The latest version 1.1.2 was released in 2005. Wiztree is my favourite alternative, but it's not open-source.
WinDirStat is good, but it's really slow compared to its alternatives.
It also hasn't been updated in nearly 20 years (last release was in 2005) so I doubt it's going to get faster any time soon :(
