I have been trying to delete my pictures from the dropbox Photos folder on the website and it gives me an error that they cannot be deleted, what can I do to allow me to delete all the contents of the folder?

Hi @jbruzual, let's jump right into this! 

 

When you mention the Photos folder, are you actually referring to an actual folder, or the Photos tab that you can find right here

 

If you access your content directly through your "All Files" tab on your Home page, are you able to do this?

 

Let me know more!
