Restore an entire folder to before a date

Restore an entire folder to before a date

Hi All.

I have a folder where I keep a lot of small scripts. Due to some errors working with git, I restored all the files to a bad version. I tried to undo the change but made it even worse. Long story short, now I have to restore about 400 files to the last version before 27 oct. Some are the same from may, some june and so on. Is there a fast way to restore all the files in the folder to what they were on 26 Oct? Or to the version that is previous to the one on 27 Oct? I wont like doing it manually.

 

Thanks anyone for help,

Andrei

You will need to do it manually per file as per https://help.dropbox.com/delete-restore/recover-deleted-files-folders
