Are discussions being deleted?

Yesterday there was a discussion thread involving several people talking about "online" only files being corrupted when being opened/moved on a PC. One of the contributors was Здравко  and myself.  This thread has disappeared from  my profile and I can't find it using search. 

 

Any reason why this should happen or perhaps Здравко can send me a link if its still available?

    Hi anonymous,

    Do you mean this one:  Re: ERROR: 0X80070780 File cannot be opened by t...

    I just copied it from your profile. 😉 Be more careful.

    By the way, you can avoid some troubles with perform move, delete, etc. using web interface instead of local file access. In such a way you wouldn't need make files available offline - no very convenient, but... 🤷

    This is what I have been doing as a work around or when having to use Win Explorer make the file "Available Offline" first then move delete etc. I wish Dropbox would fix some of these features (bugs) plus others. It feels like Quality Control is slipping.

    Thanks again ...
