How to delete attachements from the web library only?
Dear users of Zotero,
As I didn't de-selected "Sync attachment files in My Library using Zotero", the 300MB of Zotero Storage is now full. Because I don't have the current need to sync also the attachments with Zotero Storage, I would like to remove the attachments only from Zotero Storage. However, I haven't found the instructions on how to do it. Therefore, I would like to know how to remove the attachments only from my Zotero Storage.
Thanks,
86ul

adamsmithYou don't actually need to delete them -- just disabling file syncing in the prefs is sufficient -- but if you really want to for some reason, you can use "Purge Storage" on https://www.zotero.org/settings/storage but make sure that you have disabled file sync first, otherwise Zotero will just re-upload 300MB of attachments on the next sync.
Upgrade Storage
