Hey Jacer, let me also jump in here!
Let's try something else here.
Please hover over a column header and click the dropdown arrow, then select Size.
Once you do that hover over the name of folder and click the check box that appears on the left before clicking the "..." (ellipsis) next to the folder you'd like to calculate the size of.
Click Calculate size and wait for the size to be calculated. Can you give this one a go?- Megan, respectfully, been there done that.
In the leftmost pain locate the following entries: all files, signatures, send in track, photos, more, then your folders.
Click on the first folder in that leftmost pane.
How do I determine the size of that folder and its contents?
