No Vault in Folders

I just upgraded to Dropbox Plus. However, I cannot see any new folder named 'Vault' in the 'All Files' tab in my dropbox account?

Does anyone have this problem?

  • A dropbox customer support representative helped me solve this. Although, I upgraded to the Plus account, however, my account was still a Dropbox Team account, and I was the only member of the team. Switching to a personal account by removing the team was the first step. Initially, the vault didn't show up. 2 days later, vault did show up in my account when I checked my account online (not on the desktop). Hopefully, this will help others.

    Hey soumendu, thanks for checking in with us. 

     

    If you don't see your vault in the list of files and folders under the Files tab, could you try:

    • Clearing the cache? 
    • Another browser?
    • Signing out and back in again?

    Let me know how it goes, cheers!

    I have the same problem. No vault folder despite trying these things. Professional account.

    I'm afraid this is expected GS321; since the Vault feature is available to users on the Plus or the Family plans; not the Professional one. 

     

    I hope this helps!
