- 4 years agoHey DigiluxAmsterdam, thanks for reaching out to our Community!
When it comes to the external drive backup, even though there's no specific button, you can just delete the backup folder from Dropbox to stop the backup.
Deleting it in Dropbox will only delete it from there, not your external drive.
Let me know if you have any questions.

In October 2021, I installed Dropbox on my laptop. During the installation process, I assume I chose for Dropbox to backup my computer. When the backup happened, all of my files, pictures, videos, documents, etc. were removed from my laptop. To this day, I don't know where to find my stuff. My pictures are what I would really love to have back. Does someone know how to walk me through finding my files and restoring them back to my laptop? I need HELP!!! Y'all I am heartbroken because my pictures are gone from my computer!
Also gone are designs I created for vinyl, sublimation and embroidery work for my side business. Sickening!!!
Please help me someone!!!!!
