Files are being deleted on their own and it's been happening for some time now
i am not deleting the file but Files in my dropbox are automatically deleted , deleted files donot carry any name ie who deleted. There seems to be major Bug .. This is happening for past 3-4 months
Its strange , there seems to be some problem with dropbox , i have 22 GB storage in my account , presently using around 18 GB and files are getting deleted . This raises question marks on the safety of data at dropbox. Anybody pl help

Dropbox StaffHi iasstudygroup, let's jump right to it!
Is the content that's getting deleted part of a shared folder?
Can you clarify, what your Events page at www.dropbox.com/events shows? This page gives you an overview of all activity in your account including files events (adds/edits/deletes), as well as adding or removing shared folders.
Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!
only files from folders getting deleted , everytime i have restore
yes folders are mostly shared

Hi iasstudygroup, since the folders are mostly shared, then it could be a different member deleting content from there.
Because all shared folder members have access to the folder and its content -especially if they have editing access-, have you checked to make sure if that's the case?
There is no name of the deleted person. Its very strange , same happened earlier , its happening on regular basis now. Pl check the bug. It casts doubts on safety of dropbox.
