I can't receive the security code because my email is no longer active

Hello,

 

I have a big problem. I cannot access my account anymore. Everytime I try to login there's a message that I will receive a code via email to login. The problem is that the email I used is no longer active (site and domain is terminated). Is there any way that I could regain access? I have very important files uploaded, I can provide information about the files if needed. 

 

Thank you
