Where are shared files, and how can I delete them?
Dropbox says I am using almost 2GB of space in shared files. I don't know where they are or what they are. How do I find them and delete them?
The shared files, come from the shared content that you sent in the latest screenshot, the one starting with "Giz" taskman.
As for the rest of the content, you provided a screenshot before, of your Backups. Your RECOVERY backup seems to be taking up 6.74GB of content, along with your External drive, which seems to be taking 0.96GB.
You also shared a screenshot showing us your home page, along with some other files there. Did you delete any of the backup, or content ever since?

If you just delete the files you'll delete them for all the members of the share as well. Instead, you want to remove the share from your account. You can see all of the folders you're a member of on your Sharing page.
Thank you
I removed myself from everything I could. I still have this list of folders
I have the unshare link on the folders now
It still shows I have 2.6GB in shared. Is that what is shared with me?
Also, how do I see which folders are using the 465GB of space?
