Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.When trying to upload a file to server, I get the following message:
"The specified file "logo.png" could not be uploaded. logo.png is 12.27 KB which would exceed your total user quota. You are currently using 3.49 GB out of 200 MB. "
How is the total user quota calculated? I am using only 1 profile for all user roles, but the whole Drupal installation is 48 MB and I am sure I have uploaded only a few small files so far. How was the 3,49 GB calculated? After increasing the allowed quota by 50 KB the error did not disappear (I just did it for a test).
Secondly, assuming there was an error in the total quota calculation, how to reset this value? I don't want to make the quota unlimited, I want to reset the used quota to a reasonable value. If it is possible to do via editing a table, which one?
Thirdly, the message that appears while uploading a file, informing about exceeded user quota is displayed for 1 second and then disappears. I had to repeat this several times and make a screenshot to be able to read it at all. In the Drupal reporting log there is no trace of this message, either.

ufku CreditAttribution: ufku commentedTotal user quota is calculated using the file records of a user in file_managed DB table.
Directory quota is calculated by scanning the file list in a directory.
Both can be disabled by setting the value to 0.
