My quota is being occupied by shared folders

Hi everyone, I'm having problems with my dropbox account, the alert tells me that I have exceeded the space limit (12TB) and therefore I have deleted some large files, even though I have deleted them...

Hi Lorenzzz, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

It would be best to check to see how large folders are on your Dropbox account using this feature.

This would help you to determine which ones are taking up quota on your account.

If you need any further assistance, please let me know!
