I'm looking at a folder in Windows Explorer, as I like it to
appear, i. e. list of files in the right pane, folder tree in the
left pane.

I accidentally hit F3 (probably renaming something and I meant to
hit F2). The left pane goes green with a dog at the bottom.

Any quick way to revert? My usual quick ways - Escape, or Ctrl-Z -
don't work; the only way I've found is Alt-V, then Explorer Bar,
then Folders, which is very tedious when It was caused by one
keypress.
