Shin_Deki Helpful | Level 6

Thank you very much, @Megan

Thank you @Megan Could you change my username to "Shin Deki"?

@Megan It's been a few days since I deleted ~/.dropbox/instance1/dfc/, and I haven't noticed any issues so far. Thank you for your help!

@Nancy Yes, that's correct. I tested this as follows: I uploaded a new file through the Dropbox website. The file appeared in my local Dropbox folder under ~/Library/CloudStorage/. I searched for the filename within ~/.dropbox/instance1/dfc/, including its subfolders, but found no matches.

Hi, I can’t change my Community username because the settings say, “You don't have the permission to edit your username.” How do I do?

@Jay It has now been about 12 hours since your last reply, but the files are still in ~/.dropbox/instance1/dfc/. Should I continue waiting, or is there anything else I should do?

Dropbox now shows that syncing is complete, and it has been about an hour since it finished. However, ~/.dropbox/instance1/dfc/ still contains just over 26 GB of files. Should I wait longer for this folder to be cleaned up automatically, or are there any additional steps I should take?

@Jay The text in the bottom-left corner says: “Sync issues: 0” “Syncing” So yes, the desktop app is still showing “Syncing.” Sorry for the confusion in my earlier message.

@Jay Thanks for your reply. It has been about 1.5 hours since Dropbox finished syncing, but the dfc folder currently occupies 26.87 GB. I've attached a screenshot of the “Sync and storage” dashboard. Sorry that the interface is in Japanese. Could the migration or re-indexing still be running in the background even though…
