Hi,
We did receive a notification that this file has been deleted.
I can not see the deletion on our event page, as I guess it's not done by us.
However, I can see it in the list of folders, when I click show deleted folders, it shows up as one of our deteled files, we tried to restore it but it shoes an error so the restoration is unsuccessfull. And also when I clicked on deleted files on the left of the webpage, it shows no deleted files in there.
If as you said we do not get a notification when the other stop sharing the folder, which means it's deleted by the other user? If so, we should be able to restore it as our own file?
Many thanks!
