    Hi there. You can click on this link to be able to find the location of your backed up files. Please make sure that you are logged in on your Dropbox account on the web browser, then click this link: www.dropbox.com/backup/all  . You should be able to see your files there. For you to be able to delete back up files, you may have to have the Dropbox Desktop App installed and downloaded on your computer to be able to perform the changes. If you haven't already, please click this link to install the app: www.dropbox.com/install . Please make use of this link as well as your guide on how to delete backed up files : https://help.dropbox.com/organize/delete-dropbox-backup . Hope this helps.
