<title>Scan a folder</title>
28
<p>Scans of individual folders are faster than those of the whole file
29
system, so they may be more efficient if you want information only about a
30
specific part of your file system.</p>
34
<p>Select <guiseq><gui>Analyzer</gui><gui>Scan Folder…</gui></guiseq>
38
<p>Use the file browser to navigate around your file system and select
39
the desired folder</p>
42
<p>Click <gui>Open</gui> to commence scanning</p>
47
<p>Select <guiseq><gui>Analyzer</gui><gui>Stop</gui></guiseq> to cancel the
48
current scan, or <guiseq><gui>Analyzer</gui><gui>Refresh</gui></guiseq> to
49
repeat the last scan.</p>
52
<p>The results may be useful in deciding which folders can be
53
<link href="help:file-roller">archived</link>,
54
<link href="help:gnome-help/files-delete">deleted</link> or
55
<link href="help:gnome-help/files-copy">moved</link> to free up space. You can
56
also use the results to estimate how much space would be needed for a
57
<link href="help:gnome-help/backup-how">backup</link> of specific folders.</p>
59
<p>Right-click on any folder and select <gui>Open Folder</gui> to launch the
60
<app>Files</app> application, or <gui>Move to Trash</gui> to move your folder
61
to <file>Trash</file>.</p>
