Can't sync due to low disk space
Very annoying. Dropbox is giving me the 'can't sync due to low disk space' message - this is on a new system with a 1TB drive with 260G available. We have a 50G biz account, and we're using about 4% of it. ATM, this is the only machine attached to it. Please fix this, guys. OneDrive/MS doesn't need any more money.
