Files disappeared from Mac and getting an error message when I click on a folder

Hello, 

I am having similar issues to this below forum - 

https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Apps-and-Installations/Impossible-to-access-my-files-documents-downloads-and-desktop-on/td-p/626184

 

One day I got on my iMac and all of my files were gone, with only this folder/label in my downloads folder - when I click, an error message pops up saying "

The operation can’t be completed because the original item for “My files in Dropbox” can’t be found."

I am trying to find out where all of my files went, as they are not in my Dropbox account. 

 

Appreciate any help!
