Hi Jowe, thanks for joining the Community!
Are you able to install the Dropbox desktop application on that machine? This would allow the folders on your account to download, including the camera upload folder.
If you're not able to do this, you can select multiple files using the checkboxes on the left, and then downloading them. You can even download entire folders, provided they're no greater than 20 GB in size, or have no more than 10,000 files inside.
Hope this helps!
