Dropbox StaffThanks, huffie.
Can you please check one more thing?
Do you have any shared folders that you don't need here?
This page should show you shared folders that you never added to your account, or that you deleted.
If you remove the ones you don't need (if any), do you see a difference in your used space?
Hi Hannah ,
Actually I do not quite understand about that Shared folder. I am currently the only user of the account, would it matter if I'm sharing the folder? I noticed a few directories which I have previously deleted is showing up in the Shared folders as "You haven't joined this folder", when I click on the these folders it will show "Joining this folder" and recreate back this empty folder. I'm confused.
By the way, being as an admin, things should be more straight forward instead of having to check this and that just to find out that some files/folders are hidden from normal view taking up spaces.
