Can I recover a deleted folder if I upgrade to Dropbox Essentials?

Hello

 

I'm on Basic account now. I need to recover deleted files. I wonder if I will be able to rewind a folder to a 3 weeks old version if I upgrade to Dropbox Essentials.

    Hi timension 

     

    Yes you can use rewind as soon as you upgrade 🙂

     

    However, what you cannot do is recover files over 30 days as that is not retroactive.
