How can I unsync Drop Box to my Mac when I can't sign with my email?

How can I unsync Drop Box to my Mac when I can't sign with my email?

The Drop Box storage took up a lot of hard drive space on my Mac and Isn't allowing me to use Illustrator, Microsoft Teams, or the Mail program. I can't sign into my Drop Box because it sends a 6 digit code to my work email which doesn't work so I can't input the code.

 

What can I do to make my programs work and unsync Drop Box so all the files won't be on my hard drive?

 

Thank you.

Either just close Dropbox on your machine and remove the files/folders you do not want or uninstall it

 

NOTE: *make sure* you have EVERYTHING you need first on your device. Without access to that email you cannot get back in to that account!
