Re: Folders size

Folders size

How can I see the size of the folders in my Dropbox? I'm reaching the storage limit, but I only have Word and PDF files. I would like to know which ones are the heaviest to delete them. I've tried to "calculate size" but I can't really see that option when I select all the folders. How should I proceed? thanks

Hi @terrypxm, did you enable the Size column first by following these steps?

The problem with the instructions is it brings everyone to the ALL FILES column listing of the folders from where the instructions make no sense.  Instead the instructions should direct the user to folders listings under the large ''Drop files here to upload here...''  box in the middle of the page toward the bottom.  Everything makes sense here and works smoothly from that point forward.
