Why can't I free up space after deleting files?

I deleted ALL files and I still do NOT have space?

Sorry to hear about this issue, oski65. 

 

Did you also check your Backups page and there’s nothing there?

Was not using Backup so that file was empty.  Deleted EVERYTHING from Dropbox including Vault and it now shows zero usage.  I'll start re-loading and see what happens.
