Question

I deleted photos to free up space and also deleted photos from “Deleted photos “, but no space has been recovered. How do I get my space back?

    I have looked at your account and don’t see any obvious issues.  I do see the recent deletions done in our server logs.  Did you delete data that had been originally synced from Lightroom Classic?  If so, that does not count against your quota and similarly would not have freed up space.  Since the photos are now deleted off our servers, I can’t look at the data to confirm if that is the issue here.

    I see ~17Gb of data associated with your account.  Is that the number you are seeing?

    Please note that you will never need to delete anything from trash to free up space.  Data in trash does not count against your quota.
