Step 1 – Login
The first step is to login to your Shopify store using your user credentials.
Step 2 – Files
From the admin dashboard, you can enter the ‘Settings’ option on the managing column and then click on the ‘Files’ option from the next screen.
Step 3 – Filter Files
From the next page, you will see there is a ‘Search bar’ that is in the middle of your page. There is also a button that labeled ‘Filter’ on the left side of that bar. You can click on the ‘Filter Files’ button to see more options.
Step 4 – Select MB
Now you will see that there is a drop down menu. This will include the filters that allows you to choose how you would like to filter the files from. Choose the MB option that is of the size you want.
Then you can choose the greater or less than from the next menu that appears. So, for instance, if you want to see all the files that are less than 8MB, you will want to choose the 8MB option and then select the ‘Less Than’ option from the second menu.
When you’ve finished selecting the criteria of your filter, you can click on the ‘Add Filter’ button. This will show you all the filters that match your requirements.
From here you can select the file that you want to edit, delete or whatever action you were looking to complete.
