Unshare a Folder
I want to share a folder, but can't do so, since I have shared subfolder, so I proceeded and unshared all the subfolders (by deleting all the other members of these subfolders) and I did the same wit...

I check and saw that even though, there is only one member for the subfolders (which were previously shared), they are still marked as shared folders, which is preventing me from sharing the main folder.
Removing all the members doesn't unshare a folder; it just remove the people from the share. The folder is still shared with you as the only member. You need to unshare the folder. Go into the settings for the share and there's a link to unshare it
A friend shared a file larger (just on its own) than my allowed storage and I only have view access. I cannot find any way to unshare it from my account, and am effectively locked out of using my account because I cannot remove myself from the share list.
I tried "delete" from more than one area and it just tells me the file couldn't be deleted. There is no "unshare" type of option that I can find to remove myself from the share list.
How do I get rid of this shared file so my account will work again?

Thank you Megan. That worked. I was trying to remove the files individually. Removing the whole folder worked.
