Dropbox StaffHey DN4, welcome to our Community and thanks for the question.
Indeed, if a team admin is not a member of a folder, they won't be able to see it in their 'all files' page.
They can be added to folders by others, or they can actually add themselves, from the 'content' tab in the admin console.
That's the place where they should be able to see all team folders in the account.
Let me know if you have any questions!

Thanks Hannah. I will get the Team Admin to try this.
