Hi GraceGot You, thanks for posting on the Community!

Are you deleting the files via the Dropbox site directly, or via the Dropbox desktop application, Dropbox folder, or the mobile app?

Have you tried clicking the checkboxes to the left of the files and then deleting them in bulk?

Any other info or screenshots would be helpful!
