Hi all,
I have below trouble & looking forward to find out the solution.
[Pre-condition]
+ I created SPO Classic Team site
+ I want to upload my folder versus to Document library
+ In my PC, my folder structure like as the sample below
Parent Folder
|___Child Folder 01
|
|___file11.pdf - about 9.5 MB
|___file12.pdf - about 10 MB
|___file13.pdf - about 11 MB
|___Child Folder 02
|
|___file21.pdf - about 4 MB
|___file22.pdf - about 5 MB
|___file23.pdf - about 20 MB

+ After upload was done, I got the below result in SPO document library.
The file size of Child Folder 01 folder is increased, while Child Folder 02 is unchanged.

- Hello!
How many times did you upload the Child folder 01? Do you have versioning enabled? How are you calculating the size of the folder?- hoand10Copper ContributorThank Andres Gorzelany for your replied.
I just checked in the history version management, there is only version 1.0 is available.
I checked the file size in the details information of the file.- I understand, I was able to repro if I upload the file multiple times, that's why I asked.
What if you download the files in Folder 01, what's the size again on file system?
