- JayDropbox StaffHi james74, thanks for posting on the Community!
If a Dropbox account is deleted by a user, then it wouldn't be possible to recover the account or the files within, unfortunately.
Was the account part of a Dropbox Business team by any chance, or was a personal account?

Hello! Today I was trying to login to my Dropbox account, and apparently I had to sign up so I guess it got deleted. I had 50gb of data on it. Is it possible to recover it? I had important stuff back there :(. Thank you

Hey codreanuflavius, thanks for reaching out to us and sorry to hear about this.
Was the account deleted due to inactivity? And was it an individual one or part of a Dropbox Business team?
