How do I locate large files/folders on the web (not laptop)
I have a free version with a limit of 16.3GB. I normally have about 13-15GB in use, so around 85-90%.
This morning DB tells me it can no longer sync, and apparently I have used 32.5GB of my allowed quota of 16.3GB! Yesterday I'd only used about 14GB.
How can I find out what these files are? Is there any to search (on the web as the laptop can't sync) for files or folders over a certain size? I've no idea what's going on but am now unable to use DB. Any advice gratefully received.

PARTIALLY SOLVED THANKS
I found that a large folder (8GB) had been added to one of my existing shared folders, though neither of the people I share with were aware they'd tried to share this large folder. No idea why it took my storage from under 16GB to 32GB - looks as it is was double counted. Anyway, I've unshared and deleted it, and back down to 13GB.
I'd still like to be able to search for large files across all of my DB storage using the web version, if it's possible. Thanks.

Thank you @Walter that's helpful. Is it possible to display size of all folders without having to select each one at a time?
And is it possible to order ALL files by size, and thus see, say, all files over 100MB in size in one list, whatever folder they're in (as you can do on Finder on a Mac, for instance)?
Thanks
Philip
