Dropbox files & folders

Hello all,
I have yesterday found that a lot of old photos are missing from my Camera Uploads Folder. However, they have probably been missing for a long time and it is probably not possible to recover them anymore. I would like to ask if there is a way how to recover the files on my local copy of Dropbox or if Dropbox deletes my local copies of files without any back-up as well. Is so, I would be unbelievably grateful for any directions.

Hi @matvl01; welcome to the Community and sorry to hear about your missing files.
As a first step here, could you take a look at your events page and let me know if you can find or restore them from there?
Thanks a bunch, Vladislav.

Thanks for the quick response Vladislav.
I'm afraid if those files were indeed deleted back then, we won't be able to restore them through Dropbox.
I wish I had better news for you.
Please let me know if you have any more questions.
