Can't find a folder that was moved to an unknown destination.
I learned last night not to use DBX web to move folders around because bad things can happen.
- I tried moving a folder into another folder.
- When I checked the destination folder I didn't see it there.
- I popped back out to look for it (via search as well), but couldn't find it anywhere.
- I looked up activity and see this:
Notice how it says "from Photos" without a destination.
If I look at other move activities I see something like this:
It says "from Photos to Events and Trips"
So what happened to my BM 2019 folder above? It lists no destination and when I search across Dropbox there are no results :/.
OK I just noticed there are some items in deleted files that could contain my missing folder. Here's what I see in deleted files:
So is it possible that my folder is one of those "27 more files" ?
If so, when I restore this where will the files restore too?- Megan

Hi ashok-id-raj, let's jump right into this!
I suggest that you start by restoring the content as a first step. The files should be restored on the last path that they existed.
Can you also clarify if that was a shared folder, by any chance?
Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
