    Could you try clicking on deleted backups and permanently delete any files or folders that might come up Nate_Fzt ?

     

    This should help get your space back.

Hi anonymous, I hope you're doing well! 

 

Have you checked, and made sure there are no shared folders, taking up space in your account? If you did, then feel free to also follow the steps our Community Manager, Emmet provided here. 

 

Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!

    I have no shared folders and all backups were deleted. Account storage space has not changed.

    I need to know what your screens show.

      Hi anonymous, can you send me a screenshot of your plan page, and what you see there in regards to the account's storage?

        My screen shows 2.4 GB of 3.4 GB. I am no where near that capacity. Do you have access to verify what your screens show?
