Hi aguirre2018,
Yes, absolutely. Check if you can see a "Restore" button after you click the blue line of text in the description of that event as you might be able to undo the action with just that.
If not, you can Rewind the folder involved, or even Rewind your entire Dropbox account if the events are spread across multiple folders.
Here's how:
1. Click All files in the left sidebar. Choose the folder you want, or leave all folders unchecked to Rewind the entire account.
2. Click the "âŠ" (ellipsis) then choose Rewind folder.
3. Click Get started. Youâll see a graph that measures your folderâs activity by day.
4. Click on the graph to pick a day.
5. Click Continue.
6. From the Fine tune list, find the earliest change you want to undo and click to put the blue line below it â the account will go back to how it was under the blue line, reversing any the changes above the blue line.I hope that helps!
