If Dropbox hasn't synchronized, then there's no way for Dropbox to recover the files. Dropbox can only recover files that were synced to your account online.
If you had files in Dropbox that weren't synced, and in the process of moving the files they were deleted, Dropbox can't do anything about that. Have you checked your Recycle Bin or Trash?

Hey @daniel Guijarro, let's jump right into this!
Did you enable our Backup feature at any point, while using your Dropbox account? If so, is the feature still enabled?
Also, would you mind walking me through the steps that you followed when moving your files out of Dropbox? Did you simply move your content outside of your Dropbox folder, to a different path on your device or something different?
