And after deleting the said affected files my files can't still be shared publicly as it is showing error of too many requests.
Please what can I do to enable public sharing back on my account?

Hi @Luminous, thanks for messaging today!

Have you messaged the support team regarding this matter of the ban?

If not, I’d recommend getting in contact with our support team directly to look into this matter in more detail.

You can do this by opening an incognito/private browsing window, while not signed into your account, and accessing this link. 

From there you should be able to contact support. Make sure to enter the same email you use to login to Dropbox. Thanks!

Thanks... But there is no option to contact the support team directly as I am given limited support.
