    I have run up against a number of files quota and therefor want to limit or turn off all the extra files that get generated at different resolutions when I upload a file – currently getting 12 files generated for each file i upload.
    i’ve tried adjusting the ‘settings – media’ panel but that’s not helping.
    any help would be greatly appreciated.

    It is necessary to have different image sizes because a single image size cannot be adjusted to display as a thumbnail, medium size, and large image. Three images are created by WordPress default option and others are generated by theme. we need to display different image sizes in different places that’s why it’s required and cannot be optional.

    If you set WordPress created media sizes to 0, your future gallery display may not work properly. I don’t recommend you to do that as it may cause problems in the future.

    If you want to do it anyway this article may help you
