Dropbox shows erroneusly 2261% used space and there should be plenty of space left

Can you please help! I have used dropbox years and now got message to buy more space. I deleted files and my local folder and dropbox site shows just a fraction of what there should be.

    Hey ttomppa, thanks for posting today.

     

    Is it possible that you enabled our backup feature at some point? Do you see any info here?

    חנה שלום.
    אני גם נתקל באותה בעיה ועשיתי כפי שכתבת ואין לי שום גיבויים אבל עדיין הבעיה לא נפתרה (רשום לי שניצלתי את כל השטח שלי)
    תוכלי בבקשה לעזור לי?

    I also have the same problem and I did as you wrote and I don't have any backups but the problem still hasn't been solved (it says that I used all my space)
    can you please help me

      Happy to see we figured it out, ttomppa! Let us know if you need anything else.

       

      As for you, SA32, did you check your backups page, to see if you have any info there? Is that empty?

        תודה על המענה המהיר.

        !בוודאי שבדקתי ואין כרגע שום גיבוי

        ולכן אני לא מבין מדוע נגמר לי המקום?

        אשמח לעזרה
