Recover older version of a file
I am a free user
I use Dropbox to sync an app called 2Do
2 days ago the sync was corrupted/lost data.
Is there a way to rewind to a prior version of files which were changed or deleted ? There are no files in my deleted folder
When I try to rewind it wants to charge me $120 for annual subscription.
That would be worth if I know this will work but otherwise I don’t need the higher subscription
Thanks !

Hi Jschutz8,
I'd be happy to help you restore to a previous version of that file.
So long as it's within your account's version history, here's what to do:
- Put your cursor on the name of a file from here (any document, or image, or something else ending in . and three letters, such as .JPG, .PDF and so on).
- Click the three dots ("...").
- Click Activity --> Version history.
- Click on a version to preview it.
- Click Restore on the version you'd like to restore to.
Let me know if the steps above help!
