Re: The files from my file requests are being uploaded to different folders.
This is my shared folder they upload to
I just realised that in the DB window it's actually duplicated my main Upload Folder to a different place, outside of my normal file structure:
The files are completely different in the second one although they have the same folder structure. Maybe I requested files to the 2nd folder instead of the first one but there should not be a duplicate at all! No wonder I'm running out of disk space.

Hey NikkyH! If you go to your Dropbox account online, do you see the same two duplicate folders there, as well?
Other than that, you can also visit your File requests page here and double check what’s the destination folder for each one of your file requests.

After googling, I think there's been some kind of sync issue so I've actually deleted the folder now and hope that's going to fix it once and for all. I'll let you know if not LOL!
