I'm unable to locate my deleted files.

[YEichler]

I deleted a couple of folders from my local Dropbox folder, thinking that they will only be deleted on my computer, not on the dropbox site. I am having a heart attack, none of those files are available on dropbox, and they are not in the deleted files either. What can I do?? I already emptied my trash.

I feel for you but if you had them inside Dropbox folder and they had synced to Dropbox Servers (Cloud) then you should be able to restore them.  See: https/www.dropbox.com/help/security/recover-deleted-files-folders

You can also request a rollback if you know what time you deleted them.  You can email Support at https/www.dropbox.com/support

If the files were deleted over 30 days ago, then you are out of luck.  Unless you have a Business account which gives you 120 days.  The best bet is to try to retrieve the files and/or give support an email

hopes this helps

Were you able to work this out on your end or is further assistance needed?

If you have logged a ticket with our Support Team let me know the ticket's ID so I can look it up internally from my end and assign your case to a member of our Restorations team.
