Lost photos
Hi, this is a long shot, hope someone can help. I had Dropbox when it was launched many years ago, probably around 8, 10 years ago. I received warnings emails telling me that it was going to be discontinued or shut down, I can't remember, but I had to act to keep all my photos and I didn't. I have all the photos of the early years of my children's life in there, is there any chance that I can recover them at all? I'm gutted. Paola

If your account was deleted then it's not possible to recover the account or the files that it once contained.
