I have the password but it is requesting a 6 digit code in which I can not access. How can I do this without having access to the email address?
You can try contacting Support, but without access to the email account you may not be able to gain access to the Dropbox account. You need to maintain an active email address on your account so you can receive password resets and one-time security codes used during sign in.
To contact Support, visit the Support page while you're NOT signed in to a Dropbox account, including these forums, and you'll see an option for sign in issues. It's best to use an Incognito or Private browsing session to make sure you're not signed in.
If Support is not able to get you access to the account, they can at least cancel any future charges if there's still an active subscription.
