Yes. Open the command prompt, goto the folder and type 'dir /s *.* enter'

Right click on the folder c. Properties All is revealed.

The Widows folder in Windows Explorer will demonstate this quite
effectively

In addition to what the others said... if you want to get fancy, use
"treesize" from http://www.jam-software.com/freeware/index.shtml
It's freeware. It installs itself as a right click option in Windows
Explorer and My Computer. Right click on the folder, pick treesize, and
it'll show you the amount contained in that folder and also each of its
subfolders.
