Creative Cloud Web - Delete all files in delete folder

Hi guys, I have permanently deleted thousands of files from my PC's Creative Clouds Files folder in order to make additional 'cloud' space. I noticed that my cloud storage didnt improved, so I went to the Creative Cloud web to see what was going on, and I found all the files plus tons of other files that I have deleted since the begining of the year, and I cant find an easy way to select all - delete. So far I have had to manually checkmark one by one and as many as I can and then press permanently delete. But there are way too many and I could be doing this all day through. Can someone please point out how can I just delete everything in the delete folder inside the web portal, all at once?

 

Thanks,

Hi Edit,

 

The only way I know of to delete multiple files from cloud storage at once is to select the first file, hold shift, scroll to the bottom of the list and select the last file. With shift held, this should select the entire run.

 

Maybe someone else knows of a more official way, but I believe the method described has worked for other people. Let us know how it goes for you.

As far as I can see, you can only select 100 files with the shift key pressed. I have tens of thousands files in the deleted folder and the only solution Adobe is offering is to buy more space. That's non sense.

You can't be serious, can you?
