Customize the toolbar
On your Mac, click the Finder icon

Hiding the toolbar also hides the sidebar, and moves the status bar from the bottom to the top of the window.
Resize the toolbar: If you see the More Toolbar Items button
at the right end of the toolbar, it means the window is too small to show all of the toolbar items. Enlarge the window or click the button to see the rest of the items.Change what’s in the toolbar: Choose View > Customize Toolbar. You can drag items into and out of the toolbar, add a space between items, and choose whether to show text with the icons.
Rearrange the items in the toolbar: Press and hold the Command key, then drag an item to a new location.
Add a file or an app: Press and hold the Command key, then drag the item to the Finder toolbar until you see a green plus sign.
Remove an item: Press and hold the Command key, then drag the item out of the toolbar.
