Can't view or delete my Dropbox Backup

I can't seem to delete my back up. I can't even see the files backed up. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Hi Myinate, thanks for messaging the Community.

     

    Are you able to see the backup on the site, and click on it to see the files within it?

     

    What happens when you attempt to follow these steps to delete the backup?

     

    Any other info or screenshots would be helpful!

    I faced the same problem. I followed these steps, but I can't find any  file to back up. on the other hand, it is shown that my storage still full.
