My Dropbox is full, but I deleted everything.

Question

I keep getting the message that my Dropbox has stopped syncing because it's full.&nbsp; So, I moved or deleted almost everything, yet I still get the message.&nbsp; How can this be?&nbsp; I want everything gone so I can start again.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Have you checked your Backups page? Share a screenshot of your usage as shown on your Plan page. It would look like this:

You have the Backup feature enabled. Check the Backups page that I referred to in my previous reply.

I checked the Backups page, and I disabled backing up to my PC.But why does backing up on my PC count against my storage space?&nbsp; I am concerned about what's stored in the cloud.&nbsp; I can't even check what is on the cloud.&nbsp; It just keeps telling me it's "full".
