How can I find the total number of files in a folder?
Boy, am I disappointed with Dropbox. I assumed that each folder would display the number of files in that folder, without me jumping through all kinds of hoops. This seems not to be the case, however...
Are you referring to the Dropbox website or the folder on your computer. If it's the folder, use the features of your opreating system for that. If it's the Dropbox website, select all the files in the folder and the count will be shown in the upper right.
There is no way to tell how many files in a folder. It would be nice to be able to tell if all 250 images uploaded correctly by looking at how many are in the folder.

Select all the files in the folder, and the number of selected files appears on teh right side of the page.
I would just like what you offer to work better. Look at what I get. I can guess that it might be 365 or 385. But the presentation of this data is useless when I'm trying to ensure all files are uploaded before I delete from my PC.
