How can I check my storage on Dropbox?
Hello all,
Dropbox added me in a free trial I did not request. I had free 2 GB now they want $11.99/month for 2 TB. I am a sole user and will never need that. If I transfer some files elsewhere like my free Google Drive, how can I check my storage on Dropbox as I delete enough files to get back under 2 GB? Can I continue to use my free account then? How please. Thank you.

... how can I check my storage on Dropbox as I delete enough files to get back under 2 GB?You can see your usage on your Plan page.
Can I continue to use my free account then?Of course. You'll want to make sure you cancel the trial first so you're not charged.

- RPS61Explorer | Level 4Thank you kindly. I am deleting files to get below 2 GB. When I try to delete folders with files I have shared to my email I do not get an option to delete folders. How can I do that please?
