I deleted files to free up space and now I have even less space on my Dropbox account.

I ran out pf space and so deleted some files but by deleting files I seem to have used up even more space.  Why?

    Welcome to our Community, GJI.

    Do you remember how much space you had prior to deleting those files from your Dropbox account? 

    Had you checked your Plan page, by any chance? Feel free to send me a screenshot of what you see there now, as well.

    Keep me posted.
