sysSnapShoot space

Hi, i have a F2-423 and am having some issues with space. I have a full disk used, i've tried to delete some files but still i can get some breathing space and i don't know why.
I Have BTRFS Snapshots disabled (i had it enabled at some point), but there's a folder called sysSnapShoot that lists as having 2.5T used space.
How can i clear this? I have snapshots disabled and snapshot list is empty (on all volumes).

Its actually both @sysSnapShoot and @snapshot folders:
0 ./public
2.0M ./User
1.1M ./@system
0 ./@apps
268M ./@cache
0 ./@desktop
84K ./@zlog
12G ./DockerData
2.5T ./@sysSnapShoot
0 ./@usb
3.5T ./Media
0 ./@thumbnail
3.6T ./@snapshot

I recently observed the same thing on my NAS (the @snapshot folder is only about 0.5TB in size) but I suspect the answer will turn out to be the reply to a similar thread here viewtopic.php?p=22521#p22521

You can check the file system snapshot in the backup on the TOS desktop.
When you enable file system snapshots, you will be able to see the file system snapshots you took before, and then you can delete them.

The command 'du' is not suitable for querying the size of btrfs volumes, and the results obtained are wrong.
Please use the following command:

Code: Select all

btrfs filesystem usage /Volume1
What is the volume size? Noticed that there is a Media shared folder taking up a lot of storage space.

That Media folder is normal, that's where my files are.

Here's the output of that cmd:

The total capacity size of the volume is 3.63T, while the Media folder occupies 3.5T.

I deleted several video files worth >200GB, but still the disk is full. It can't be the recycle bin, because i disabled it.
