Any thoughts on how I can access my…
Hi there, I am experiencing an issue with files added by other users after installing the new Dropbox on MAC OS 13.1 (22C65).

I recently backed up 200-GB of files from an external hard drive that was getting old. I used the DropBox Backup feature figuring it would be easier to simply use a "restore" feature rather than manually copying files over. I now have a new drive but have found that DropBox backup doesn't actually have a "restore" feature…
