Dropbox files & folders

Hello,
I recently toggled on the "Smart-Sync Update for Mac" feature in my Dropbox settings, so that the Smart-Sync files are really stored online. The problem that happens is that the files once categorized as documents are not removed but catecorized as "Other".
How do I fix that.
Hey there @samuelz; thanks for posting on our Community!
If you're still having issues with this could you please let me know if you rebooted your computer at all since your desktop app stated that it's 'Up to date' within your menu bar?
Thanks!

Hello,
This is samuelz, just had to switch my account.
To answer your question:
Yes I have rebooted my Mac.
And is our desktop app in your menu bar showing up to date or still syncing @soz?
Could you check if this space is being taken by the cache folder on your computer perhaps?

It isn't syncing.
Even if I remove Dropbox and delete the folder the Storage appears in "other"
Also I tried deleting the chache. It didn't help.
