No you cant. But, as Dropbox doesnt do any sort of checks on account set up it doesn't mean you used the right email initially....
Also if you use google, for example, they annoyingly allow any punctuation before the @ sign to be part of the same email, but, here it would be separate accounts. Same using gmail.com and googlemail.com - its all one at Gmail, but, 2 here (and everywhere else)!.

2 years agoRaquel7, if you check your email address, do you see any other emails from Dropbox in the last couple of months? Anything at all before that welcome email you mentioned in your first post?
If not, and you have one email address indeed, Iām thinking about the possibility that the other Dropbox account was set up with an email address that had a typo, like Mark suggests above, as well.

In my email i have emails from dropbox before, when they notify about changes, then i have one "setting up" the new account and no more, because in the "new" account i have nothing. It is weird because i logg in with the google option so i dont even write the email.

Thanks for checking. Did you log in by inserting your email address at any given point, instead of using the āSign in with Googleā option?

I had it in my phone, but it signed out and when i entered again it appears empty!
I moved to a different country, could that be a reason why my account was reset?

That shouldnāt have affected your Dropbox account or the files on it.
At this point, I suggest getting in touch with our support team directly, so that they can look into this further.
Please follow these steps to log a ticket with them and then, send me your ticket number here. Iāll make sure to leave them an internal note, as well.
