First of all, thanks to all who answered my previous question - but the plot thickens and this is a bit complicated. So here goes:
A) My One Drive is up and running and I would prefer to use One Drive instead of Dropbox. I have run out of space here, but I would be willing to do whatever it takes to close this account. The rub is that I have deleted files here that I would like restored. All of this is my fault because I totally misunderstood the purpose of Dropbox. So A) how can I get those deleted files restored and B) can I transfer those files to my One Drive - I just paid $10 for extra space, but I've still run out of space - I'm willing to pay whatever it takes to have those files restored and to please close this account - I know that one can not have BOTH OneDrive and Dropbox - but OneDrive, as I've said, serves my purpose better than Dropbox - I'm sorry about all of this and I'm asking for help and some resolution - so please help!

.. I never
- anyway, I am getting a new laptop and AGAIN, OneDrive has run out of space - I've maxed out here. Frankly, I am so disgusted with MS, that I am just going to bite the bullet and return to the fold, i.e. here. "
I am so tired right now, but please - the whole of 2020 has been wiped out here (my files, that is - I rather think we would have liked to wipe out 2020) - I fully intend to upgrade tomorrow, but since I've not been here since September (2021?) - wow - seems like 1921- is there any way to retrieve 2020 files - and whatever else is missing - I will happily pay whatever it costs if this is at all possible.
THANKS SO MUCH TO EVERYONE HERE WHO HAS HELPED ME THESE LAST THREE YEARS! I am really a very nice man - and not all a windsock! LOL~ thanks again.
Hey @johnmike59, I hope you’re doing well!
Can you please clarify when was it that these files got deleted from your Dropbox account approximately?
You can perhaps see more details via this link.
Keep me updated.

How did you upgrade? Have you checked it was the correct account (i.e. if you add a file to the upgraded device does it appear on other)
