I'm not getting the 6-digit code to access my Dropbox account - my email is deleted.
I have two email account in dropbox. And verification code was sent to my email. but, I had deleted email account, so I unable to check my email. Is there any other way to receive my photo data?

1 year agoHi from me as well, nakyung yoon! Before logging you a ticket, can you clarify if youâre currently trying to sign in to your Dropbox account and youâre being asked for this one-time code?
If yes, do you happen to have any devices that are still linked to that Dropbox account? In case that you do, please check their notifications and let me know if you can locate the code there.
If not, weâll log a ticket to the email address you see here.

You can try contacting Support, but without access to the email account you may not be able to gain access to the Dropbox account. You need to maintain an active email address on your account so you can receive password resets and one-time security codes used during sign in.
To contact Support, visit the Support page while you're NOT signed in to a Dropbox account, including these forums, and you'll see an option for sign in issues. It's best to use an Incognito or Private browsing session to make sure you're not signed in.
