There is no version history in my menu. What gives? I am interested in restoring recent files (<30 days) but need to confirm they are there. Tried looking in the folder menu and the main menu and there is no version history option.

I have exactly the same problem: I worked on a Word file all day yesterday, saving it dozens of times. Late last night something went wrong and the file became corrupted. I should be able to find dozens of versions of this file from earlier in the day. But I can't get to the 'Version history' option either from the local Dropbox app or in the Dropbox website. SO WHAT IS WRONG WITH DROPBOX???
