Cannot Delete Backup

I did a full computer backup and my dropbox is full. I cannot delete the back up file. Suggestions?

    Hi there LutherH, I hope you're doing well!

    You'll need to disable the computer backup feature first, which you can do with the steps outlined towards the bottom of this article.

    In step 6, you'll need to choose the keep the files on your computer, rather than in Dropbox, and the files will be automatically removed from your Dropbox account.

    Let me know how it goes!
