So the thing is i was syncing my laptop with dropbox. Many files were synced but there were still files left to be synced and it was taking a lot of time. So, i thought of uninstalling and installing dropbox. For this at first, i unlinked my pc and sync was stopped and uninstalled dropbox. While i was uninstalling dropbox, all the files were removed and it was stored in a folder named "my dropbox files" or smth like this i forgot. The question is i guess i lost those files that were left to be synced. What happens in this situations and how to confirm that no files were destoryed? please help me

How do I completely remove all files from drop box without removing anything from my computer. Drop box went nuts and began downloading everything and filled itself up. I do not need a subscription amount of dropbox storage. I just want to empty drop box and start over. How do I do this without changing anything on my Mac?

Is deleting the dropbox folder deleting the system files on a MacBook?

I have this same issue. I have sent a message about it, too. I am stymied, can't delete anything without losing it from my Mac. Oh no!
