Downgraded Dropbox to basic and accidentally deleted entire Dropbox folder from my D Drive

I thought it was a full backup, not the actual folder. I see all the files (580GB) on Dropbox online. Can I download the whole lot in one go?   Are they safe or will Dropbox delete them forever? ...

Hey Dondon1975 - I'm afraid I'm not quite sure about the issue you're facing. 

 

Could you let us know some additional folder and/or send us a screenshot of what's troubling you?
