Hi,
My laptop had ransomware. All my files and profile was deleted within 2 minutes.
At beginning I could not restore the data from dropbox. There werent any files in DELETED FILES. But when I click ALL FILES (there was'nt almost anything) and then I choosed "..." and then click "SHOW DELETED FILES" I finally could see my all files.
