Hello,

I use basic dropbox, with 2.75 Gb, but for a few weeks it has been sending me alerts that the space is full or almost at the limit to upgrade. But this is not true my files did not exceed 600Mb

 

So delete all files, photos and shared folders and just go down to 2.5Gb

 

I did the verifications indicated in the chat, I don't have active Back up, but I'm still busy with my storage. (I've attached screenshots)

How can I solve this? Is there a way to reset my dropbox to 0Gb used?

 

Thank you for your replay.
