How to reduce the spacing between each selectable folders on the left panel of the File Explorer

At one point my Windows 11 crashed and when I reopened it, the file explorer looked weird with all those spacing as drawn in the picture attached being enlarged. How do I return it to normal?

    Sometimes, a simple reboot can fix display issues. Make sure you restart your PC after making changes to see if it resolves the spacing problem.

    Look for the Scale and layout section. Make sure it’s set to 100% (recommended) for a standard display. If it’s set higher (like 125% or more), it can lead to the larger spaces you’re seeing.
