Open your Norton device security product.
If you see the My Norton window, next to Device Security, click Open.

In the Norton 360 product main window, click Settings.

Open My Norton for My Norton view 
Open Norton 360 for Classic view


Open Norton 360 Classic view -> Settings -> Backup Settings or Quick Controls

Curious, have you checked online storage?

Delete backup set from your account 

  1. Sign In to your account.

  2. In the My Norton page, under Cloud Backup, click View Backup Sets.

    The existing backup sets that are in use are displayed.

  3. To delete a backup set, click the trash icon of the backup set that you want to delete.

  4. In the Delete Backup Set confirmation window, click Delete.

    Click Cancel to display the backup page without deleting the backup set.

If you delete the backup set in your Norton product, it will not delete the files in the online storage unless you choose the option to remove the backup set and all files. 

What you can do now is log into your Norton Account and click on the Cloud Storage pillar. Then click on View Backup Sets. Then find the backup set you wish to remove and click on the trash can beside it. That will free up the storage space for you.

Any chance another Norton user on your account is using Norton backup?
