Lee,

I’ve been using Dropbox for over a year. My problem is a folder got moved into 
another folder. I may, or my wife may, have inadvertently moved that folder, 
but the moved folder was recreated with just 3 or 4 files from the original 
folder and it was in the location of the original folder. That we didn’t do.

Something is afoot in the cloud!
