No space in Dropbox but I can't find any files or folders to delete

It is saying I have no more space in my Dropbox, but I can't find where there are any files or folders in there to delete so I can have space. I don't remember putting anything in there and how am I out of space if there's nothing in there?

    I see; thanks for the screenshot, kasey1031! 

    If you go ahead and sign out of your Dropbox account on the desktop app, and then, log back in with the same email address, do you still see the same error message when trying to delete your backup files via the app settings?
