Hey married2butthead; sorry for jumping in.
Unfortunately, we can’t click on any links due to security reasons. If you could attach it though in this thread by clicking on the small camera icon above your message box, that’d be great.
Riverside Range, did you have backup enabled on your account at any point? Also, if you click here, does the space seem to be taken up mostly by shared or regular/personal files?

Already stated I do not have it backing up anything.
