Hi,

My account was deleted as I was inactive for over a year or more, and I understand that but is it possible if I can get back the photos and files that I had in my account, the dropbox account was with the same email adress?!

    Hey Nasip07, welcome to our community! 

     

    Unfortunately, that isn’t possible. Once an account has been deleted because of inactivity, all data is deleted from our servers. This is done for privacy and security concerns. I wish I had better news. 

     

    Take care
