Hey there
@NEWTODOLHPINS11
,
When you
download
and install the
desktop app
it will create a Dropbox folder for you. If you are having trouble locating this folder then you can click the Dropbox icon in your
system tray/menu bar
and then click the small folder icon along the top of the pop up window. This will open up the Dropbox folder on your computer.
The Dropbox folder is just like any other folder on your computer so to move your files there you can drag and drop the files into the folder. Alternatively, you can cut/copy and paste the files into the folder also.
Hope this helps, let me know if you have any other questions - Thanks!
