Cannot access Dropbox account via web

I am attempting to access my Dropbox account. I have tried Edge, Firefox, Chrome, and Vivaldi, and all give me the same message after accepting my correct login credentials:  
"Oh hello. Sorry for this little hiccup."

Similarly, when I try to bypass the main screen and go straight to dropbox.com/account, I am greeted by an Error (500). 

On the same computer, I can see my files and folders in the Windows 10 Dropbox app, but I must access via the Web to update the Account setting I want to update. 

How do I get past this problem, which only started today?

    Hey there andrea_2004
     
    Are you not able to login through the website here?
     
    You can also try clicking on the Dropbox icon that’s on the top left-corner of this page to see if you’re able to navigate to your account. 
     
    If not, could you please send me a screenshot (without any personal info) of what you’re seeing when you try to login?
     
    Let me know what you find!

    Glad to hear that you were able to sign into your account, andrea_2004!
     
    Could you please clarify what you mean by:

    Are these files you’ve downloaded from the Dropbox website to your computer or files you’ve added to your Dropbox account?
     
    Any additional info would be very helpful. Thanks!
