Unable to relocate folders following repair

Does anyone know how to relocate folders? I can see them on the Events page, but I can't figure out how to move them, en masse, to their original place. They're not showing on Explorer, or anywhere else, other than by following a link provided by Dropbox techies.

    Hi Geo001 

    You either need to download them from the web page, or, install and use the app to get them to download locally and then move them (note moving from outside of the Dropbox folder will delete them from Dropbox).
