Folder in "shared" that is not shared
In left-side menu I go to "shared" where I can see all my shared file/folder. In there I see a folder that has not active shared option (link or user). Maybe it had previously, but not today. So whay...
Folders always stay shared unless they are actively unshared - but, it is possible that somebody who has shared it previously has actually left the share without unsharing it. Hence you get the menu options you have. If you were owner you'd be allowed to unshare it, however, as you arent you can only remove from Dropbox - which basically takes it out of your Dropbox account and so takes the files out and gives you the space back.
If you want to keep any info from it copy / move those files to your account first and then 'remove from Dropbox'.
I made the copy of that folder and I removed the original one from my dropbox. Ths procedure didnt delete that folder, because it was still there, with 2 option:
- join it again
- or abbandon it
I chose to abbandon it and that makes the folder to disappear from my dropbox, so it worked.
Here my concern: is that folder still anywhere in the cloud, abbandoned with all the content inside, with no active owner and with no member now? 🤔
