    Hey Eefje, welcome to our Community! 

     

    Based on the info you have provided, it looks like these are shared folders that haven't been added to your account just yet. Could that be the case? 

     

    Have you checked your account's plan page, to see what's occupying your storage space? 

     

    Keep in mind, that if you need to leave a shared folder, you can do this by following these steps. No worries, we'll get to the bottom of this. 

     

    Thanks a bunch!
