Hi Jay,
Thank you for the reply to my inquiry. I understand that I am over my quota, which I no longer need. The Dropbox software was only a trial with my HP laptop. I don't need any of those saved files.

They won't (and can't) delete your account. You need to do that yourself, or leave the account idle for more than a year and it will be deleted automatically. If you're unable to sign in to the account to delete it yourself because your password doesn't work, you can reset your password.
