Dropbox Community ModeratorI have the same issue. Still getting 'link' on documents 'where are my files". I want to get all of my files back on my computer as I no longer want to use Drop Box.

Hey dockap, if backup is off for your computer, and you still have the Dropbox app installed, you should be able to reset your desktop folders back to their original locations, by following these steps:
1) Click the Dropbox icon in your menu bar.
2) Click your profile picture or initials.
3) Click 'Preferences'.
4) Click the 'Accounts' tab.
5) Press the Option key and at the same time click the 'Reset OS folders locations' button.Let me know how it goes!
where is "Reset OS folder"?
