Dropbox full of files from another user

[Gbfan111]

My Dropbox was used quite a few years ago to collect pictures for a trip. Another user uploaded lots of pics basically filling my account. I have tried to contact them about removing the files, but not had a response, and since I didn't upload the files, I can't remove them. I'm stuck with an unusable Dropbox, unless someone has another way out. Thanks in advance.

Hey there @Gbfan111, I hope you're having a good day!

From what you mentioned, it sounds like the files were shared through a shared folder, right?

In this case, I can suggest following these steps to remove the shared folder from your account.

This will free up the space in your account, and won't affect the folder contents for other members of the folder.

Let me know if this helps!

I think this did it. Thank you!
