    Hi jaohar,

    Take in mind that, as noted in the article you are referring to, the limit mentioned is related to application performance and not to the account in any way! These are different things. If you want to calculate your folders size take a look into another thread here. If something doesn't work as expected clarify what's going on in details. Again, as noted in the article, you can decrease files number in sync without removing anything out from your account if that's your issue (it's advisable to check it out in advance). 😉

    Good luck.

If there is no other way to do this, can I please request this as feature to implement in future?
