Storage Space
Looking for help with managing the storage space in your Dropbox account? Talk to the Dropbox Community and get advice from members.
I deleted everything in my Dropbox, both locally and remotely. I have revoked all file and folder shares. I have removed all files shared with me and revoked and cancelled all shares given to me. I have deleted everything I ever had access to through shares. I have permanently deleted all recoverable files and folders. As I understand it, my Dropbox should now be completely empty. There are no "backups" activated. Backup Space: 0. Where are the alleged 9.83 GB of files, that are said to use up my basic storage volume of currently 6.45 GB? And what do these 9.83 GB consist of?
Sorry to hear you’re having this issue, @Kai-Andreas Degen.
Can you please clarify for me whether you had Dropbox Backup enabled on your device at any point?
Also, I’d like you send me a screenshot of what you see here.
Let me know when you have more updates!

Hi, there were no backups enabled.
Hi @Kai-Andreas Degen, since you mentioned that all of your shared content, along with your Backups have already been removed, let's try one more thing.
Can you try to check for any content and delete folders within the following link: https://www.dropbox.com/backups/PC ?
If the issue remains, don't hesitate to let me know!
