Listing of file sizes?
Is there a way to see all of the file sizes of every file I have on dropbox without going into individual folders?
- 4 years agoHi icarusct, thanks for joining the Community!
Currently, there isn't a method to see and sort every single file on your account to check their sizes.
You would need to go into each individual folder on your account, and if need be, calculate the folder size so that you can see which folders are larger.
There may be an app or service that could perform this feature on your local Dropbox folder on your machine.
If you need any further assistance, please let me know!

Jay, that's simply not true, as I finally found a page that explains how to do it. I forget the exact process, but currently, I now see all the sizes, as there is now a column showing each file's size.
- Jay4 years agoDropbox StaffHi Steven Cee, it is possible to show the file sizes, however, the user was asking to view the size of every file on their account without having to enter each folder manually, which isn't possible at this time.

so how can i find the file sizes please?
- Jay3 years agoDropbox StaffHi corinnemcb, you can view file sizes using the steps in my previous post. However, it isn't possible to see file sizes for all files in all folders, as you need to go into each folder manually.
