  • Hi @"Joe F", thanks for checking in. It sounds like you're navigating through a folder that's in a team folder, but has restricted access. Since you mention that no permissions were changed, could you send me a screenshot (without any personal info) of the message you get, just to have a better visual of it? Looking…

  • Thanks for the additional information and screenshots, @"Picky1". Although I can't provide much input for "3D Objects", since you're also having trouble unpinning it from your File Explorer, could you let me know if you have admin permissions? Keep us posted!

Maybe they will do the trick. * Go to the Dropbox icon in your system tray. * Select the avatar icon on the top right corner of your Notifications panel. * Choose Preferences... * Navigate to the Account tab. *…

  • I'm afraid I'm not able to determine the level of risk, until one of our security experts is able to review your report in its entirety. I understand that this may not be the ideal reply you were looking for, but let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks, @"tchambers"!

  • Hey @"j0shh4nxd", thanks for checking in with us. From what I understand, you're referring to the For you tab, which includes suggestions based on your activity. Although there isn't currently a way to completely disable it, you should be able to right-click on a suggestion and select Dismiss. In any case, thank you for…
  • Hi there @"qualiyah", thanks for reaching out to us and sorry to hear about your frustration. I'd be happy to help look into this with you, I'll just need a bit more info.

  • Hey @"momsahib", thanks for checking in with us and awesome work on the troubleshooting! Out of curiosity, is the account that you're trying to sign into on your computer a Basic one? You can check this by going to the Plan tab. If it is, could you make sure that you have two or less already connected devices on your…

  • Hello @"GAKloncz", thanks for joining us on this thread. When you make files online-only, they will still appear on your computer, but they should take as little space as possible. If you don't want whole folders to appear at all locally, you can selectively sync them. However, since you mention that online-only files…
  • Hey everyone, thanks for your ongoing reports on this, and I'm sorry to hear about your frustration. I understand how important this is for you, however, due to account-specific information that may be necessary to troubleshoot accordingly and to make sure that we cover as much basis, we have to continue via email for now.…
  • Thanks for getting back to us, @"Fivestar5". It sounds like you're referring to computer folders (like Downloads, Documents, and Desktop) which were added to your Dropbox folder. If that is the case, you'll need to follow the instructions mentioned in this article on how to turn off computer backup. Let us know how it…
  • Hi @"boudreauml", thanks for joining us on this discussion. The notification is about the file transfer itself. So after two days, the file transfer will expire. If the files were saved to the third party app or downloaded to the Dropbox account, they won't be affected. I hope this helps!
