    You have to find and delete things yourself Jlr2. There isn't anybody who can do that for you. 

     

    You can see them at www.dropbox.com/home OR if you installed the software in the Dropbox directory of your computer. 

     

    To delete on Dropbox simply drag them out of the Dropbox directory if you are using a computer, or, tap delete on the website. Note make sure you have saved copies elsewhere if you need the data!
