- 8 years agoThe Home page is just a listing of your most recently used files from your entire account. Files and folders don't actually reside there. It only shows you the activity on your account.

Thanks for the help Rich. I spoke to a customer service rep from drobox who told me essentially he thinks I'm lying and that you could never just drag a file to a folder without going through the "move" tab. I've literally been doing this for the past 2 years almost every day for work. The program is called Dropbox and you can't perform the simplist drag and drop from one file into a folder? That's some irony right there.
All good, I'll just do it through another means.
Appreciate the help again!
