Recovery of old files dropped in dropbox after running out of dropbox space

If I ran out of space in my dropbox, can I recover files stored in dropbox after I ran out of space if I buy extra dropbox space?

Dropbox doesn't delete your files when you run out of space. It just stops syncing until you have space available.

Find help to solve issues with creating, uploading, and sharing files and folders in Dropbox. Get support and advice from the Dropbox Community.

If you need more help you can view your support options (expected response time for an email or ticket is 24 hours), or contact us on X or Facebook.

For more info on available support options for your Dropbox plan, see this article.
