My folders were moved to another location on Dropbox, but there's no relevant record.

Hello, 

So I have a odd one I came in to work this morning and went to look for a sub folder and it was not there, after a moment I noticed that the hole folder was empty all my Folders in it where gone, when I stated poking around I found them all in another folder. But when I look at the logs I can not find any record of the move. Has this happened to any one else or know what may have happened.

    Hey AJ H, welcome to our forum. 

    When saying there’s no record of the folders being moved, did you check your Events page and there were no deletion/addition events related to your folders/files?

    Let me know what you find.
