Organize files - restore - rollback

Hello! I used the function Arrange - Organize files - Period of time - Month. As a result, I created the following folders: 2021-01, 2021-02, etc., where my files ended up.
I want everything back. I have a free account. Help me please.

Organize

    That's correct, to revert the changes, they would need to be done manually, if you're not on a paid account.

    Hi titlus, thanks for messaging the Community.

     

    You can check the events page for the recent changes to your account. From there, you can see which files and folders need to be moved back to their old locations.

     

    Dropbox Rewind, which would be able to do this process faster, is available on paid plans. 

     

    If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.
