Welcome back to our forum, Xavier Montaner!

Intentionally I don't keep much in my hard drive... Only software and my live Lightroom files for editing... I am not an expert but the combination of Dropbox and Lightroom Classic may be creating the "monster / hidden" folder that takes a lot of space in my hard drive...
