    Glad you were able to find it, taalib! 

    Since the folder in question is 5TB, is it safe to assume that you were previously part of a Dropbox team and this folder was unshared? 

    If yes, and since the folder is way too large for your current quota (which, if you’re currently on the Professional plan, should be 3TB), you’d need to re-upgrade to the Dropbox team plan, so that you may have enough space to add it back to your Dropbox account.
