Dropbox usage more than actual

Dropbox usage more than actual

My Dropbox files are about 600MB, both on PC and Dropbox website, however the PC app as well as the website both say I'm using 4.2GB of 5.3GB. Where could the extra 3.6GB be? No shared files, no smart or selective syncing, no file requests. Deleted file folder is empty.

Hi @martinmmm, thanks for posting today!

The Dropbox desktop application and site would show the correct quota, so I'd recommend checking on the site directly.

Could you check the size of files and folders to see which could be taking up the most amount of space?

This will help me to assist further!
