    It's been a while since I clicked on my usual link for translations (DropBox Paper) but tonight it just works seamlessly. No problems at all. Whatever gremlin or bugbear it may have been, has, apparently, been sorted out. All is well.

I am not able to access any of my paper.doc s now. 

I get the message ERROR 403 - It seems you don't belong here.  You should probably sign in.

I am signed in and can access all other folders and files, but none of my paper.docs that I have been using for years.

Any ideas?  HELP!!

After contacting the dropbox support, I got an answer below.

 

1. Open https://dropbox.com/paper and you will get the list of your paper files.

2. Click the link of paper that you want to open then you can edit it.

 

I don't know why, but this works for my paper.
