Note: This setting may take some time to update.Toggle on Update for online-only files on Mac.To see which files are really taking up your storage space, adjust your Dropbox settings so that online-only files have both logical and physical sizes set to zero. The reason for this is that file size is calculated based on something called “logical size” rather than “physical size”. If you’re using online-only files with macOS 10.13 to 12.2, you may notice that online-only files appear to take up space when you try to manage storage space in your Mac settings. Still, this takes up much less space than the file itself would.
Online-only files take up a small amount of space on your hard drive as the placeholder requires space to store the file name and the shortcut to. To make existing files and folders online-only, see the instructions for desktop and mobile above. This won’t affect existing files and folders. New files won’t take up storage space on your computer. This setting means that all future files and folders that you add to the Dropbox folder on your computer will be online-only.
