Hello everyone, i am in dire need of help!!! My boss asked me to help with his mac( manage storage, reorganiwe etc) and i did a few movements that i know realise i shouldnt have. I was trying to save some space on his dropbox and i copy pasted all the docs from the mac file to the icloud file. To not have everything double i erased the files from the mac file dropbox. I then proceeded to reinstall dropbox and then we couldnt see anything else anymore. My question is : if i use dropbox rewind will i be able to undo this movement and have back everything the way they were classified? Obviously i need help or else i am putting his entire business into jeopardy since his entire clientele was on dropbox, he is a lawyer.

 

Thank you immensely for your help

Hi @SannaSalou 

 

Oh no 😞 

 

Dropbox rewind should do this as long as it was already purchased when you did it. 

 

www.dropbox.com/events may also show the deletions and allow restoring. 

 

As a side note I hope he will now set up a backup system!
