Hi all i'm pretty new to using cloud and have noticed that although ( as far as I can tell ) I have no files uploaded i'm using 5.2gb of my 20gb allowance. 

 

Does anyone have an idea what may be taking the space up ?

 

Thanks

It's hard to say.  20 GB isn't much.  As with all storage, some of it is consumed by the system files that operate it.

Hi thanks for the reply but I think you have the wrong end of the stick. I'm talking about the 20Gb of Cloud storage purchased with my account. No system files there !

Untrue.  ALL storage devices have system files. Without them there would be no functionality -- i.e. file sync, delete, rename, move, etc...
