Dropbox StaffHi DrStuart, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Are you able to locate folder on this page?
What about on the events page?
This will help me to assist further!
Many thanks. It's a complete mystery. I did try logging off and on again and all those sort of things. Now when I look the folder is back again and looks good. So fingers crossed. Thank you for your interest but I think it's OK again.

@DrStuart The same thing has happened to me. A shared file went missing. I looked through my emails from Dropbox to see when the file was deleted, but I don't have any record of it. The folder is not in my deleted files.
Do you have any idea how you miraculously fixed the problem?

Hi Erica F, I hope you don’t mind me jumping in.
Have you also checked your Events page? If the file’s been deleted, you should be seeing the relevant event there.
Do you also remember when was the last time you were able to access it approximately?
Hi @Nancy,
The last time that dropbox notified me that my boss accessed the file was August 19, 2022. I do not show any events, nor is this showing in the deleted folder. I don't have any notifications from dropbox telling me that anything was deleted.
