The Tree

You can get an overview of all of your computer's files and folders by using the tree. Many people find using the tree to navigate is faster than selecting and opening folders.

To see the tree, click the Tree tab at the bottom of the sidebar. Click the tab again to put the tree away.

If you don't see the Tree tab, right-click the sidebar and choose Tree.

The starting point - the top of the tree - is the root directory, represented by a slash (/). Click the disclosure triangle next to the root directory to open or close the list of all your computer's folders and files. The items on your computer are arranged hierarchically. The root directory may list network locations in addition to locations on your computer. (Note: In addition to the root directory identified by a /, there is a directory named root.)
