Taking back my computer's files from Dropbox.

Naturedr, I hear you and share your frustration. I hope you got the help you needed from administrators because I am not tech savvy. My only expertise was in translating my understanding of admin instructions into clearer word pictures. Good luck getting your answers from admin.
Thanks for your reply: I ended up deleting my dropbox account completely and reinstalling on my computers and starting from scratch with a new account and new upload : until today, a week later when one of my computers started backing up an entire 500gb folder rather than only the files I thought I had chosen (obviously it was not clear to me with thier new complexity, how or where to just drag and drop what I want backed up). I have run my own business for 20 yrs and have had over 2000 clients in that time- but somehow I am too much of a ludite to be able to understand the new dropbox! I'm deleting my account once again but I am not re-installing. I'll just find some cloud application to back up the folders I need. I have even read that dropbox's security is considered only so-so in the industry! Take care-
