Viber is deleting contents of the Downloads Folder on Mac!
According to many users, initially, when they had installed the app on their PC, they gave it access to the Downloads folder so that all the files downloaded from the app would be placed under that one single roof. However, much to their surprise they noted that Viber has silently deleted all the files present in the Downloads folder on their Mac.
For some, this issue first came to light right after they had updated the app whereas for others, it happened once they deactivated the account. To make the matter worse, none of the deleted files are present in the Bin either [though it has all the other deleted files]. So is there a way to recover these files?
