# How do I show an item from What's Using Space in Finder?

Click the small folder icon (**Reveal in Finder**) on the row. Finder opens with that item selected, so you can look inside before deciding what to do.

This works throughout **What's Using Space**: on rows in the main list, on folders you've drilled into under **Biggest on this disk**, and on rows in the **Relocated** panel — where it shows the copy on your fast drive.

Revealing never changes anything. To act, use the row's own buttons, such as **Move to fast drive**.
