Thanks, amilford, but just as a clarification, by vault, you're referring to the Dropbox Vault feature, right?

 

Have you checked your all files page again, to see if perhaps the move didn't complete successfully and the files just went back to their locations?

Is there someone I can talk to over the phone? I am searching everywhere. I am really concerned I have lost all my years of photos and memories of my children. This was my backup place. I don't understand where they have gone.
