- ⌘⌫ moves the selected item to the Trash (after confirmation), ⌘K adds it to the Collector (Pro), ⌘Z undoes the last move to the Trash.

In the map, rings and list
These keys work when the map, rings or list has the focus — click an empty spot of the view first if needed.
| Key | Does |
|---|---|
| ← → | Select the previous or next item of the same folder (largest first) |
| ↓ | Go into the selected folder and select its largest item |
| ↑ | Select the parent folder, or zoom out |
| Return | Zoom into the selected folder |
| Esc | Deselect the item and close the inspector; press again to zoom out |
| Space | Open or close Quick Look for the selected file |
Elsewhere
- On the welcome and home screens, Return clicks the blue button (Get Started, Scan My Mac).
- While a scan runs, Esc cancels it and goes back to the home screen.
- In confirmation dialogs and sheets, Return confirms the highlighted button and Esc cancels — for example in the Collector’s review sheet.
- In the search field, start typing to search every file of the scan; clear the field to go back to the map.
