I have a local folder of about 93gb synced to both OneDrive and Box. I have it setup so all files are always downloaded and never offloaded to the cloud. Somehow OneDrive always shows 7gb higher than box and what the local disk shows.

I started with 0gb on both OneDrive and Box before starting the sync.

I've emptied trash on both OneDrive and Box tried using windirstat as well to measure the local space used and it's inline with what Box has. Even the onedrive client shows a mismatch as well. Not sure where the 7gb is going to.

Tried using the largest files by size filter/view on onedrive and did not see anything significant.

Any idea why?

Windows Explorer: 93.1gb

Box: 93.0gb

Windirstat: 93.1gb

OneDrive: 100gb
