Make it possible to expand the left side bar on the website

How to expand left sidebar width on the website?
How can I expand the left sidebar width. I have many levels of files and I can not see the names of folders that I want to move files into. As you can see below, all I can see is the first letter of the folder "A" and there are several of them. I want to be able to expand the left sidebar so I can see the names of those folders and not just the first letter. I was able to do it before, but not now for some reason.

    Hi crash c. 

    I don't know if this helps but what I tried on my end if you happen to have a folder name that's quite lengthy, if you try to zoom out just enough for you to still be able to read the folder names, and then you hover your mouse to the left side-bar line , you can expand the width and make the full name viewable. If in case the folder name is really long, what you need to do is just hover your mouse to the folder name itself and you will see a pop up box displaying the entire folder name. Hope I am able to help. 

    Thank you.
