What happens to files that were sent via a link that's expiring soon?
I have photo files that were sent via link to my Dropbox account. This link expires in a few days. If the pictures are in my drop box, will they disappear when the link expires. Or should I download ...
Hello Newtoforum123 - welcome to the Dropbox Community!
Files that were shared with others via a shared link with an expiry date (or via our Transfer feature) won't get deleted when the expiration date comes. It just means that others won't be able to access the mentioned link to get to the files the link points to as it will be disabled.
If you've already saved those files in your Dropbox account (or somewhere else), you'd still be able to access them even after the expiry of the mentioned link.
I hope this clear things up for you and I'm always around if you have any additional questions; just let me know and I'll be glad to follow up.
I have a similar question. message says that "your transfer hasn't been downloaded. It looks like your transfer IMG_0753.JPG hasn't been downloaded and the link will expire on (date)" What does this mean and what do I do about it? Thanks!

Dropbox StaffHi there vicki5scott; welcome to our Community!
The mentioned message (email most likely), is referring to a Dropbox Transfer you initiated from your account (for the referenced file) and is informing you that the recipient(s) haven't yet accessed/downloaded the content from your transfer and the link will expire at the quoted date from which point the link to the transfer in question won't be valid.
I hope this clears this up a tad and I'm always a post away if you have any follow up questions.
