Restoring Deleted Dropbox Files

Accidentally deleting files can be devastating, especially if you don’t have a backup system in place. Luckily, if you use Dropbox, they have it all taken care of for you.

If you delete a file in your Dropbox folder, there’s a simple way to get it back. Just open your Dropbox account in your browser and navigate to the folder where your file was before you deleted it. To see all the files that were in that folder, click Show Deleted Files and it will give you a list of all the files you’ve deleted in that folder.

Fantastic. Now find the file in question and click on the drop down to the right.

Click Undelete and your file will be restored.

Bam, it’s that easy. You can also see older versions of that file if you wanted to.

Just another reason why Dropbox is fantastic.
