How to delete my Dropbox Backup files
Hello, I saw that my file box is almost full -
Personal Dropbox spaceUsing 22.4 GB of 22.75 GB
Regular files (107.9 MB)
Backup (21.8 GB)
Replay (0 bytes)
Shared files (443.9 MB)
Unused space (388 MB)
I am suprised that I have Backup 21,8gb I do not see anywhere what files are those and how to delete them, because I do not use any backups on dropbox. Can anyone please tell how to delete them, because I do not know even where they are stores and there are no folders with name Backup.

Hey Agiic - thanks for using Dropbox and welcome to our Communirty!
You should be able to delete your backed up files from your backups page. Can you give it a go and let us how it goes?
Thanks!

- Yes, now. I didn’t see it before. What I get is very strange now. I cannot send a photo here, right?

I would like to understand/to learn how to get there myself, I don’t find my way to dropbox/backup/all from home.

Click on the 9 little squares at the top right next to your image icon/letter of your name and the option is there :)
