1. Maybe you selected wrong folder when invoking the update operation?

2. Note, that "svn update --set-depth" will remove the files and
folders from your working copy, but pristine copies of the files will
be still present on your drive.

You have to do "svn cleanup" to get rid of unused pristine copies.
(This is a known unimplemented feature and is mentioned in Subversion
1.7 release notes).

3. If there are modified files, ignored files, or files that it cannot
delete then Tortoise just plays safe and leaves them on your hard
drive. It deletes only files that are controlled by subversion and
have no modifications.

Use "Check for modifications" dialog to see what is the state of your
working copy.
