Folders inside the Projects Shared With Me folder do not reduce user storage quota, only the quota of the project folder's owner. |
If you want to update users or change their permissions, go through the following steps:
To change the name of the project folder, go to the File Explorer tab, select the folder and choose the Rename icon from the top menu. Your project folder will be renamed, but it will be displayed with the original name for other shared project folder users.
Every time a file is uploaded, renamed or deleted, all Project Folder users will receive email notifications, except the person who uploaded/renamed/deleted. Note, that notifications are sent on a user log out and only if you're using Project Folders via web. |

Your project folder will be deleted.
If you delete the project folder from the Edit Project Folder dialog, it won't be deleted but rather transformed to a regular folder and it won't be either visible or accessible to your users. |
