Question: Hidden files which are duplicates of those stored in icloud drive
I just received a notification that my icloud storage is full. However, when I checked the size of the files located there, it is actually less than half of my max storage capacity. I then viewed the hidden files and folders inside and then it appears that an exact duplicate of my files is also stored there hence the reason why it is full.
So, is it necessary for this kind of backup to be there or this is just a glitch? If it is the latter, it is safe to delete the backups (which are hidden folders) to free up my storage?
