Shared tab shows shared folders that can't be added to the account

Hi there.

These folders remain with a partner with whom I have shared folders. He has no way of deleting them himself. There is only evidence that you should increase the storage space.

Magic solutions anybody?

 

Thankyou

    Hey MSMichels, thanks for taking the time to post to our Community.

     

    The shared tab will indeed show someone the shared folders they've been invited to, both ones that are added and not added.

     

    There's no way to remove those folders from that page, unless whoever invited this user, removes them as member of the folders.

     

    I hope this helps, but let me know if you have any questions.
