Failure to upload several thousands of files through the website

Failure to upload several thousands of files through the website

I am trying to upload the contents of my website (which is no longer active on the web). I have successfully done this previously, but this time dropbox hangs up  on me whether I use drag and drop or upload button. Fails both with Chrome and Brave. Could the magnitude of what I am attempting be the problem - about 13K files, 128 Mb. Smaller uploads no problem.

Thanks for reaching out to our Community, @wol1936.

 

I think the issue in this case is the total number of files you're trying to upload, not the size.

 

You're trying to upload them at once, right? Can you try with, say, 2-3k files at a time, to see if that works?

 

Keep me posted.
