Files that I update on my Mac don't sync online.
In the last couple of weeks, local files that I work on are not syncing online. If they do, it is extremely slow. My internet is fine. I am on a Mac as well.

I deleted a backup, but it is still using storage. Why?
Hey all, I recently deleted a backup of an old external drive from the Windows client. This should have freed up storage in my account - however, it is still using the same 608MB, even after waiting for two days. There are no files in the "Deleted files" section either. What do I have to do to free up that storage?

How can I see the full path of files found in search?
When you search for a file show the full path of that file so we can understand where it is located.
