If you unlink or delete an app, this will have no affect on your file data in your account.
Registering an app on Dropbox only sets up the ability to connect to Dropbox via the API. Deleting it prevents it from being able to connect to Dropbox.
In relation to locating your files directly on your Dropbox account, please cross check the account that is connected to the access token as mentioned by Здравко.

Hi TazDevilLooney,
You should keep in mind that you're going to deal with addon that's still in development stage. Even more, as seems, this addon is NOT actively supported anymore. There are used some coding practices that are obsolete and dropped by Dropbox - something that can put you in issues if you don't have developments skills (not just end user). All files the addon uploads are put to your application specific folder that keep application name (the one selected by you) and itself is subfolder of "App" folder. Usually uploaded files are spread into other subfolders inside.
Hope this gives direction.
