| Action | How |
|---|---|
| Zoom into a folder | Double-click it |
| Up one folder | Backspace, the Up button, or a crumb in the path row |
| The whole map | Home, or the home button |
| Zoom in and out freely | Mouse wheel, or + and − |
| Pan while zoomed in | Drag the map |
| Back to the start screen | Ctrl+W, the × next to Rescan, or Close the scan in the right-click menu |
Zoom animates by default (Settings › Behavior › Animate zoom).
Under the toolbar: the path to the folder you are looking at, each part a button. On the right, the Filter button (The filter).
On the left; L or the panel button hides and shows it, and its edge drags to set its width.
- Drives: every drive with its label, kind (NVMe, SSD, USB, network), how full it is, and free space. Click one to scan it. The line under the list drags to give the list more or less room.
- Largest items: tabs for Files, Folders and Types, and Changes while a scan is compared. Click a row to go to it on the map; hover for its path.

The toolbar switches what fills the map's place: Map, Insights (Insights) and Changes (Changes); B cycles them. Zoom and the path row belong to the map; the other two have their own controls.
On any box:
- Inspect (Ctrl+I): the item in depth (Inspect).
- Zoom to folder, Up one folder, Show whole map.
- Open, Show in Explorer, Properties (Alt+Enter), Copy path (Ctrl+C), Copy name.
- Show only this file type: filters the map to files with this extension.
- Select everything in this folder, Rescan this folder (F5 rescans the whole scan), Close the scan (Ctrl+W).
- Scan file: Save scan as… (Ctrl+S), Open saved scan… (Ctrl+O), Compare with a saved scan…, Stop comparing.
- Export to CSV: Largest files, This folder, or Filter matches.
- Move to Recycle Bin (Del) (Cleaning up).
Left: the hovered or selected item and its share of the scan, or the last thing that happened. Right: a meter of how full the drive is (orange from 85%, red from 92%), the file count, and SpaceSharp's own memory use as a bar against the PC's memory.
Ctrl+click adds a box to the selection, Shift+click selects a range, and Ctrl+A selects every file the filter matches. The right-click menu, Inspect and Del act on the whole selection.
