    Hey Wahyudii, thanks for reaching out to us today.

     

    Just to clarify, do you mean that you tried to login to your account with your email and password, but did not receive the 6-digit security code?

     

    Have you checked your email's spam folder, in case it ended up there?

     

    Also, if you have any other connected devices, you should have gotten a notification with the code on those devices as well.

     

    Let me know what you find.

    I also have the same problem. I know the password of my dropbox but it still asked the code. i already add no-reply@dropbox.com as contact, but still no code in my email. Is there any other way to retrieve my account?
