Why is the storage used abnormal.

I have less files in Box drive, but the storage used is so high.BOX__w28E9shfYoXwXhdzRG3lBw.png

I also have this problem.

I've deleted all my folders and files in Box drive but the "Storage Used" still show me 33.6GB of 50.0GB.

How strange is that...BOX__O1Peuh8ovk5-uMKIuFX5sA.jpeg

I have the same issues. Whatever I deleted, the usage shows 11GB over 10GB cap. Will you please address this?

Hi Everyone, 

Welcome to the Box Community, I'm happy to help!

I've ran the script that will recount all of the files/ folders in your account, so you should now be seeing the correct data and storage size in your Box.

Feel free to write back in if you have any questions for me!

Best regards,
