I don't see this anywhere, they're not numbered, there's no total anywhere, I have a bunch of files uploaded but no number anywhere to see how many I have in a folder..

I must say, from a business user perspective this seems like a minor thing that would make a lot of users happy. It's unfortunate to see the level of communication from Dropbox on this issue considering it's been open for over a year. We will most likely be looking at other alternatives as Dropbox for Business really misses on a lot of features that would make it a more robust platform.

Please note It's cmd A and not ctrl A

UPDATE: We now provide functionality for this for Team Folders 

If you go into the Team Folder tab in the admin console, click on the modified column header, and you'll see an option there called files. That'll give you the recursive file count for the whole structure.
