It's not a backup of what you have in Dropbox. It's a backup of your computer or an external drive.

When I list files & folders none are visible. I did delete about 250MB of visible files.
Anything listed on their Backups page?
Thank you for your quick reply.
from the home page I do nto see a link to backups. While you provided me one, that takes me to MINBE, not the one I am helping and older user with.
Can you be explicit about a) how to navigate there and 2) why backups would use space if there is no data in the dropbox to back up?
OK, I decoded the URL you sent and applied it to the dropbox. problem solved. What an awful UI! Thank you.

sorry poorly worded. A backup is a file in dropbox., It should listed just like any other file.
I realize you have nothing to do with that, just griping to the community.
