Hello,

I've bought 2TB iCloud storage plan, what concerns me is that Mac OS shows different "storage space left" in different places of the system.

Screenshot shows my whole iCloud folder selected and "Information" displayed, please notice in the upper right corner of the window it says 413GB, while in the details it is 213GB, on the other hand "About this Mac" says that the iCloud takes 361GB of space.

Which one is valid? Why there are such differences? It starts to drive me crazy, I'm a fresh Mac user, and Windows is easy on such things, what it says in different places is always the same and I do not have to use magic tricks to get to know the real space occupied.

BR,
