How can I see where my quota is being used?

My boss decided not to pay for the additional storage space and I have deleted and moved all files except for a few and it still says dropbox is full.  How do i see how much i have used

    Sorry, just to check, you're not able to click on the link I created?

     

    The site itself will show where the storage is being used, without needing to click anything.

    You can find any backups on your account from this page, and then delete them from there as well in order to free up space.

    Hey Kim53, I'd suggest you follow the steps here in order to disable the backup feature and delete your backups.

     

    I hope this helps.
