# How do I see how many copies of my data exist and where?

Open **Copies** in the Delta Drive sidebar. Across the top: how big your **main copy** is and how many days it's locked for, whether a **second copy** is on, and how many folders from this Mac are kept in Delta Drive.

Below that is every one of those folders — the built-in ones and every Link Folder — with what's true right now: copying, up to date (and when), on but never copied, off, or the Mac folder is missing. Each has **Copy now**, **Show on this Mac**, **Open in Delta Drive**, **How it's kept** and **Stop keeping this folder…**.

It ends with the point people get wrong: a folder kept in Delta Drive can be deleted like anything else; Delta Trust is the one nothing on your Mac can touch.
