Hi there, @Fridaanggard, sorry to hear about this.

 

Can you clarify if you're missing files that were saved to your Dropbox account or if you're missing desktop files?

 

Also, when you say that you deleted Dropbox, did you simply delete the Dropbox folder?

 

Are you able to see your deleted files here?

 

Let me know and we'll go from there.
