Hard drive full of system data on macOS, how can I change it?

Dropbox eats up computer memory in the form of system data, although all folders are not set to "offline available", but can only be viewed online. How do I fix the problem? The computer has 500 GB...

Thanks, 1839744, can you confirm that you've rebooted your computer, like Jay suggested, to see if that helps?
