How to disable "Update" notification on MacOS

Question

Dropbox's new launch on MacOS essentially cripples Dropbox (spotlight is broken, finder cannot search, external drive cloud storage is disabled, etc.)

So reverting to the older version fixes all the issues I had before.

How do I disable this notification in the menu bar Dropbox icon and in the Dropbox drop-down menu - I have to manually click "get started" then cancel it for it to disappear for a while - but it always comes back, so I've had to use a free open-source app called Hidden Bar to hide the **bleep** icon as its unsightly!

Would appreciate any tips/hacks to disable this (perhaps editing some config file somewhere??)

It doesn’t read that way otherwise the word “other / else" should have been used

this IS my specific issue hence why I've posted (amongst many other posts across other threads)

She's basically asking if there's anything ELSE you need help with, since your original question was already answered.

I’m afraid that it’s not possible to remove this notification completely.
