Copying "empty" folders bug - not sure how else to report
Copied an empty folder to fix up a filing system, then moved other folders into it **AFTER COPYING,** and when I pasted this "empty" folder, it had al the contents I had moved into it after the copy.
Noticed after having done this close to 50 times...
Anyone else had the same issue? Is it a "feature" or a bug?
Hi there Choix, thanks for checking in with us.
I tried this out and I'm getting the same results when I use the desktop app, but also when I copy any folder from the File Explorer/Finder, regardless of whether it's inside the Dropbox folder or not. For this reason, it seems to be an OS-based behavior.
If you've noticed this elsewhere or you have any other questions, let me know. Thanks!

Cheers for the speedy response!
Didn't even think to try that, but I am also getting it with regular file explorer. I will post to windows support.
