The Ribbon Bar provides access to all commands of TreeSize Free. It is divided into logical sections such as the "Home" tab, containing commonly used functions and elements, or the "View" tab, enabling you to customize the appearance of TreeSize Free. Use the "Select Directory" button to start the scanning process for a drive or folder.

Furthermore, the arrows located in the quick access toolbar (usually the titlebar) allow to navigate forth and back through the recently selected elements within the directory tree.

In the directory tree a graphical overview of the scanned drive or folder is shown. The arrows in front of each subfolder can be used to expand this view and look into the subfolders' contents.
