How can I determine the owner of a shared link and delete it?

I have a shared link which I want to deleted.  I searched in my drop box but it is not there. However the link still works. Meaning, anyone with the link can still download the file.

 

I am unable to find the owner of the shared link, nor can I delete the link.

 

The link is :

[Removed as per Community Guidelines]

 

Appreciate any help.

 

Thanks

    Hi rmasoor, thanks for messaging the Community!

     

    Just to clarify are you certain that this shared link is on your account?

     

    Do you see anything on this page on your account?

     

    This will help me to assist further!

    If you're the owner of the link it will appear on your Links page, where you can delete the link, modify its settings, or have it take you to the file's location in your account.

     

    If you're not the owner, there's no way to delete the link or determine the owner.
