    Hey 2155271208, thanks for your post.

    Sorry to hear about your files missing; when was the last time you could access them in your account?

    Is it possible that you have two different accounts and the files are stored on the other one?

    As for your space usage, can you send us a screenshot of what you see here?

    Thanks in advance!
