Hi xorg,
That sounds really frustrating. Here’s what might be happening and what you can do:
Folder Ownership: If someone else is listed as the owner, it’s possible the folder was accidentally shared with you or you were added to a folder they created. This could happen if you were given edit permissions and it appears in your Dropbox.
Check Sharing Permissions:
Go to Dropbox.com, find the folder in question, and click on Share.
Review the list of people with access. If you don’t own the folder, their name will be listed as the owner.
Leave the Shared Folder:
If you no longer want access, you can click Remove My Access from the folder settings, which will remove the folder from your account and free up space.
