Hi elena19, can you check if you have any folders shown here: https://www.dropbox.com/backups/PC?

Can you check to see if there is a backup on the site still taking up your quota?
Keep me updated with any progress!

Hi Megan, I tried your solution but I noticed the browser was redirecting to https://www.dropbox.com/backup/all
So, since I'm on a Mac, I tried this https://www.dropbox.com/backups/Mac and it worked. I finally found where the files from the (unwanted and I don't really know how or when it was activated) backup were kept. The files have bene deleted and the capacity fully restored.

Have a good day
Elena
