How does the online-only feature work, and how does Dropbox handle photos on my iPhone?

I don’t know anyone to help me with DB - I have dabbled on-off for 15 years but get frustrated and delete the program - Now I’ve decided that DB can do what I want but I need to learn snd understand...

Hello Jay - My files are already uploaded from my PC to Dropbox - However DB has filled my hard-drive with copies on my hard-drive under Windows Users - I’m beginning to think because tge files came from an external thumb-drive that DB made an extra copy onto my PC hard-drive…. All my folders and files are on-line only at this stage just to get the job done. I will use selective sync later when I get my HD space back - I have the 3TB Dropbox plan so no issues there..
Thank you Greg Q
