One of my Dropbox folders appears on the website, but not locally.
v204.4.5420 on 6.10.2-arch1-1
On the website I can see a folder Dropbox/pepper, but on the local disk of one of my desktops that directory is not there. The directory is there on another desk...
I hadn't noticed the date window for the 'deleted files' was so narrow. I broadened the date search and saw that I had deleted some directories without knowing I was doing that.
Restoring those directories has done the job.
Thank you all.
Hi Nancy. No forbidden characters. The name of one folder is ~/Dropbox/shared.
I have re-installed Dropbox over the existing version and the folders are still missing.
Perhaps I should purge the existing installation first? How do I do that?

Dropbox Community ModeratorTo uninstall the Dropbox app completely, you can follow these steps.
To clarify though, you mentioned in the beginning the folder in question was under this directory â~/Dropbox/pepperâ. Is â~/Dropbox/sharedâ another directory that doesnât sync to your computer besides âpepperâ?
Let me know if Iâve misunderstood anything.
