    Hey dawnmccarrabass, let's jump right into this! 

     

    You mentioned that some files went missing after an incident that you had. Would you be able to let me know more about this? 

     

    Did you receive any emails from Dropbox, informing you about a large deletion, in order to follow the steps there, and restore your content? 

     

    Sometimes, after a large deletion, we send emails like these. 

     

    Also, what about your events page? The Events page at www.dropbox.com/events gives you an overview of all activity in your account including files events (adds/edits/deletes), as well as adding or removing shared folders. 

     

    Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
