Restore Deleted Files
I have a file that I moved from DropBox to my hard drive. The hard drive crashed, so I lost it. Does Dropbox Basic have any deleted files in an archive that can be recovered?

It does yes, but, only 30 days worth: https://help.dropbox.com/delete-restore/recover-deleted-files-folders

Thanks for your help. It saved me a lot of hassle.

Hey Bill80205! Can you send me a bit more info on this?
Was the deleted file saved on your desktop app perhaps? Is there any chance your updates hadn’t synced to your online Dropbox account, which is why you’re not seeing the correct version of the file being restored?
- Bill802052 years agoNew member | Level 2👍 Yes it is still on my Windows laptops. I'm not sure how to sync my online account so it will be there on my Android phone??
