Question

Itemised breakdown of cloud storage? Is this possible?

Hi folks. Apols if this has already been covered. My sync folder has 58GB of file data in it, way less than my 100GB allocation. But on the CC app it says I'm using 114GB of space. I've permanently deleted any previously deleted files, and I have very few libraries so they won't be to blame. Can anyone please shed light on what might be going on here? I've asked Adobe customer support for help and they were bordering on useless. Is there any way at all to get a clear itemised breakdown of cloud storage use so I can actually home in on the problem? Because right now I'm in the dark as to what to do about it.

 

Many thanks in advance.

In my initial thread, I was not very positive about Adobe's customer service. I'm very happy to say that Tarun has been a tremendous help in getting this issue resolved on here and in private messages. Thank you Tarun - 10/10.

Thanks for this Tarun. I've read all that documentation already, I have no Lightroom content at all and one very small doc in the Document cloud. I genuinely can't see how my data can be 114GB in total. Is there any way of finding out the data footprint of libraries though? They are literally the last possible thing I can think of.

One other thing that's weird - I went off on holiday from work 2 weeks ago. Before my holiday, storage was at 75GB. I come back and it's at 114GB. I hadn't even touched my computer and neither had anyone else. What's going on here? Could it be an error at your end??

Thanks for your response. Please ensure that your deleted files aren't using valuable storage by deleting them permanently. You may check this article for more info: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/delete-files-permanently.html
