Hi Walter, thanks for getting back to me.
I’ve tested this in another browser as suggested and the issue persists.
In both cases the account is over quota and I’m unable to view or delete my cloud files.
This also happens in the mobile app and desktop client.
I’m not requesting more storage — I only need a way to delete files to bring the account back under quota.
Thanks for taking a look.
