Turn back the clock with Dropbox Rewind

Don’t worry, we’re right there with you—and precisely why we built file recovery and version history into Dropbox. 

But, what can you do when a catastrophic event happens? Let’s say an application crashes in the middle of a project and erases all of your latest work. Or even worse, you’re targeted by ransomware and locked out of your files. Fixing devastating mishaps isn’t always as simple as reversing an edit or recovering a lost file.

Now there’s no need to fret about big accidents because Dropbox has your back. We’ve built Dropbox Rewind—a new feature that can take your account back in time before disaster struck and makes Dropbox a safer place to keep everything that’s important to you.

With Rewind, fixing big accidents with the content in your account is easy. Just sign in to dropbox.com and restore your entire account to what it looked like before the mishap. You’ll be able to pick the exact point in time you need to revert your account to and undo everything that went wrong all at once. 

After rewinding your files or account, it will be as if the accident never occurred. Your recovered files will sync to all your linked devices, and you can breathe a sigh of relief.

Need to use Rewind or just want to know it’s there if you need it? Dropbox Plus users can rewind their account to any point in the past 30 days, and Dropbox Professional users get up to 180 days of protection. For our Dropbox Business customers, stay tuned for feature availability updates.
