[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1951944, member: 204485"] IgorP, I apologise if I "talked down" to you we never know what level of expertise users have so, I shoot for the lowest denominator until I'm told otherwise. You obviously have a high level of experience with computers. I believe that Jake's suggestion will work for you. I did note in your first screen shot that iCloud Drive is turned off but that does not delete it's contents just it's syncing. Deleting the contents on iCloud.com will work but as with all iCloud deletion the files may take some time to disappear although I did this with a file of mine and the effect seemed immediate. See below; [ATTACH type="full" alt="Screenshot 2025-06-14 at 08.49.00.png"]40441[/ATTACH] After deletion the number of files decreased by one and storage decreased accordingly. [/QUOTE]
