Deleted Files on pc
I have had dropbox for a while and mainly use it to transfer pictures and such to and from devices, However, when I updated dropbox on my computer there was an option to sync files. Not really paying...

Restored most of the deleted files from dropbox's deleted folder online. No option for that on the app. Still highly recommend an option to maybe NOT delete everything from your computer just so there a reason to fill up the Dropbox online storage forcing people to pay for the larger size. Instead maybe, just maybe, add an easily accessible option to not do that. Thanks

Hi Akerke Maulenbay, I've merged you to this thread for users with similar issues.
Could you check on your machine for an old Dropbox folder to see if the files are visible there?

Hello, I am not sure if I'm correct. But I cannot see them.
There is only one folder where I have downloaded files to dropbox. But I need to get back also files that I have not downloaded to dropbox.

Are there any missing files visible on the deleted files page, or the events page?

There are visible files on the events page. The deleted page is empty.
