How can I see how my space is being used?
The question is quite clear: the user would like to get more information on how the space is being used. A tool like WinDirStat would help tremendously... Or some overview of all the big folders, and big files. Could you tell us how to get that?

Hey VagabondVivant, thanks for posting to our Community.
Since the thread you posted in was a bit old, I moved your post to a thread of its own.
If you'd like to see how you're space is being used, you can take a look at the plan tab of your account settings; it will show you an overview of your usage.
And if you want to calculate the size of your files and folders, you can follow these steps.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks for replying.
I checked the suggestions. The first gives only a high level overview.
The other: i have hundreds of folders. Is there a way to see all the big folders in one go? Your method doesn't give an overview, it's extremely manual. It's 2025, surely there's a better way?

I use Directory Report to see where my disk space is going.
Fast and easy to use.
I love it
