Permanently deleting images in shared folder.

I have many years old folders in my shared folder list.  But under each folder it says that they are not in dropbox.  Ho can I permanently delete these folders?

 

Ar they counted against my limit?

    I guess I did have another account.  Someone added me to their account.  I'm going to close that account.  Thanks for your info.

    Hi steveschneider 

     

    I assume you are seeing this via the Dropbox website? If they are saying they are not in your Dropbox then they are not using quota 🙂
