How to calculate ALL folder sizes at once

How do I calculate the size of ALL folders at once?  I followed various instruction on this forum but none seem to work for me.  First, I have selected 'size' as one of my column headers.  Then, I select all the folders by selecting the first folder, and using the shift key, select the last folder.  However, at that point, my screen changes, the ellipses disapper and I can't find a way to 'calcuate size'.  See screenshot attached.  

 

Thanks for your help.

    Hey Mary Ann B. - I'd be happy to help.

     

    Can you see an ellipsis button on the far right side of the page, underneath the preview pane? 

     

    Let me know what you find, thanks!
