Hello Dropbox community, help support this post to get this feature on the urgent list 😎 we all will benefit!
Can the dropbox development team add a feature in the file search that helps users find and resolve duplicated folders files?

The unmet need: No ability to search for duplicated files archived on the dropbox cloud
Direct benefit to users: dropbox community saves countless hours in productivity gains - vs the current alternative - download all the files and use a 3rd party software to resolve the duplicates.
Benefit to dropbox: optimization of space, reduction of load on the systems, less data to carry and backup.
The other problem that dropbox would be solving - for all the users that are dealing with archives crammed with duplicated data due to the sync conflict issues of the past.. The community can finally erase old skeletons without the risk of losing important data.
Very nice way to save space
