  <title>Scan the file system</title>

  <p>To find out how much space your file system takes up:</p>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>Select <guiseq><gui>Analyzer</gui><gui>Scan File System</gui></guiseq>
      from the menu</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <p>Your file system includes all internal and removable storage devices which
  are mounted when the respective folder is scanned.</p>

  <note style="tip">
    <p>If the file system that you are trying to scan is large, it may take a
    few minutes for the scan to complete.</p>
    <p>Select <guiseq><gui>Analyzer</gui><gui>Stop</gui></guiseq> to cancel the
    current scan, or <guiseq><gui>Analyzer</gui><gui>Refresh</gui></guiseq> to
    repeat the last scan.</p>
  </note>

  <p>The results may be useful in deciding which folders can be
  <link href="ghelp:file-roller">archived</link>,
  <link href="help:gnome-help/files-delete">deleted</link> or
  <link href="help:gnome-help/files-copy">moved</link> to free up space. You can
  also use the results to estimate how much space would be needed for a
  <link href="help:gnome-help/backup-how">backup</link> of specific folders.</p>

  <p>Right-click on any folder and select <gui>Open Folder</gui> to launch the
  <app>Files</app> application, or <gui>Move to Trash</gui> to move your folder
  to <file>Trash</file>.</p>
