Dear Dropbox Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well.

I recently signed in to my Dropbox account on another device and activated two-factor verification. Unfortunately, I did not notice the email confirmation sent during this process, and my account has been marked as inactive.

Could you please assist me in reactivating my account? I apologize for any confusion and appreciate your help in resolving this matter.

Thank you for your attention.

    If you sign in again you will be able to reactivate it however the data within the account which was removed is not recoverable I'm afraid. 

     

    As the email says about inactivity, it is wiped if accounts are not reactivated.

    Thank you for your response regarding the recent issue with my account. I greatly appreciate your assistance so far.

    There are some very important photos stored in the account that I need access to as soon as possible. I kindly request you to prioritize reactivating the account at your earliest convenience.

    I truly appreciate your help and understanding in this matter. Thank you once again for your support.

    Sincerely,
