Restoring files deleted/moved within the last 12 hours (like a time machine backup)?
Hi all,
when installing her new computer, one of my colleagues accidentally deleted and moved folders/files, and then tried to restore. As a result, it looks very messy, with many things in the wrong locations and long-deleted files showing up again.
Is there a way to restore dropbox back to the state it was 12 hours ago, like a timemachine backup?
Or do we have to do this manually, going through each folder, checking its location and deleting all the files/folders that were already deleted a long time ago?
Thanks a lot for any help!
- You can do it in one go via https://www.dropbox.com/help/security/recover-deleted-files-folders
However, if there are lots you may need to get support to do it (if its too many for you to do the recover options wont appear).
