Deleting a shared folder - no options
Hello guys,
i wanted to delete a big shared folder. I am not the owner of the folder and i would like to delete it my clicking on the three dots where the options are, but they‘re not there.
Maybe someone can also tell me how to add a screenshot to this post as i can‘t see that option right now.

Okay, so the option you're seeing is to permanently remove your access to the shared folder. It's not actually added onto your account.
If you choose this option, it'll no longer appear there, and in order to access it again, you'll need to be invited to the folder.
- @Jay thanks for your Reply.
Somehow i still cant paste the screenshot in.
But if i open the link you sent me, the three dots dont appear at the folder i want to delete.
There are three dots underneath tho, and it says „delete me“. But this doesnt seem to be connected to the folder Okay, somehow i couldnt paste the screenshot on the phone, but the macbook will do.
