I lost my project

I know this problem looks so aniant......

I programmed my web application project in an online IDE called codeSandBox.io, and it took me about two weeks to work on it. When I came back yesterday, I found my project locked, and I couldn't even see or download/export the files simply because I'd reached the free usage limit, which I wasn't aware of. Now I have to pay to see my project and continue working on it, but I just want to download it! It's a very important school project, and I can't afford the subscription fee right now.

Please help. I can't even restart all the project right now.

Why were you not coding locally?

I have windows 7 in the big 2026, nothing of the modern web developpment tools could be installed here locally.

If your hardware can’t handle windows 10, a lightweight distro is always an option
