Make folder available offline then cancel subscription
Hello there,
I'm currently making my folders available offline on my windows pc.
Now I'm wondering what is going to happen when my subscription ends. Will my available offline files get deleted from my pc?
Or can I copy the dropbox folder on my pc to an hdd where the files are an independent copy from dropbox?
Thank you in Advance
Thrawn

Hey there Thrawn - welcome to our Community!
When your subscription ends only syncing will stop if you're over your account's storage limit. No files will be deleted from your computer.
As for your copying your files, yes, you should be able to copy or move your Dropbox folder anywhere on your computer. Just make sure that the app has finished syncing and it shows 'up to date' first.
Let us know if you have any other questions.
