  • If the file/folder was deleted then the link would have indeed been broken @"Rfranks". In this case, a new shared link would need to be created. To put your mind at ease, perhaps you can create a test folder, create a shared link and then perform the actions that you'd like to take to see what happens. I hope this helps!
  • Hello @"raizada", I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble with this! Can you just clarify for me, when you mentioned doing a complete reinstall, was this the advanced reinstall? If not, please try this with the steps outlined here. Also, can you let me know if you have "Early releases" toggled on at the bottom of your…
  • Hello there @"tejassingh0015", thanks for reaching out! You could use a file request link and embed this into your website for the upload button.

  • Thanks for getting back to us here @"KatyT"! When you tap on the file in the Dropbox mobile app, do you see a blue "Open" button towards the bottom of the view?

  • Hey @"tim1889", thanks for posting! Since you've already tried using another web browser, can you let me know if you have the same behaviour with an incognito browsing window?

  • Thanks for getting back to us here @"djessel"! When you uploaded the file to Dropbox, it wouldn't have edited or converted the file in anyway. When you uploaded the file to Dropbox did you perhaps rename the file at all? I'm wondering if perhaps there is a stray space after the extension perhaps. Otherwise, can you try…
  • Thanks for the screenshot @"g v."! If you don't want to see these icons, you can delete them from the Dropbox folder. This won't affect the features themselves if you have them enabled or not already. Hope this helps!

  • Hi @"miltpb", it seems you're having a different issue here. Can you clarify for me how the timestamp is incorrect? Does it not show the time when the file was downloaded? If you use another web browser or incognito/private window to download the file, do you have the same behaviour? Keep me posted!

I was able to locate your ticket with our Support team and I've passed along your comments from here. If there's anything else that I can help with from here, please let me know!
  • Hey @"tchambers", thanks for posting! Additional security can be added to shared links by changing the settings and permissions of the links. You can check out more info about this here. For example, a password can be added to a shared link and Business teams can restrict access to only team members. I hope this info…

  • Hey @"Duckysaurus", can you let me know if you've taken a look at this article that Lusil mentioned earlier in this thread?

  • Hi there @"elisa22", thanks for reaching out! There are a few ways to sort your files in Dropbox, but you wouldn't be able to do this through dragging and dropping I'm afraid. Since you don't want to sort them by the time stamp, perhaps the best method would be to sort them by name and rename the photos to put them in the…
  • Thanks for joining us here @"yodave"! If you see that there are files are taking space in your account, this won't include deleted files. You should see these files in your "All files" page here. Are you not able to see any folders with a plain icon on them there? If you can't see any non-shared files/folders, could you…
