Can't login

Ive been using my free Dropbox account since years, both on my laptop and my mobile phone. After a Windows update I suddenly can't access my Dropbox account on my laptop, using the same login credentials as my mobile phone has for it's Dropbox application. The 'forgotten password' option doesn't work because I don't get any confirmation emails in the same email account I use for Dropbox. And that means no email at all, even after checking spam folders etc. This way I'm stuck without a working Dropbox application on my laptop, retrieving passsword doesnt work, contacting Support is IMPOSSIBLE without signing in with your original email account you registerd Dropbox with in the first place.

 

How on earth do I get my photos back on my laptop with it's Dropbox app?
