Dropbox moved my folders into a new folder labelled with my name. How do I change it back?

Dropbox moved my folders into a new folder labelled with my name.  How do I change it back?  It's screwed up my synchronization, and I've wasted the better part of a workday trying to fix it.

This happened to our company also.

The reason to have a centralised server is to stop personalised folders so everybody is working off the one set of files and not their own set of files.

 

This really is a massive step backwards in my opinion and we will also now start to look at other solutions unless Dropbox really start to come with solutions and understand the issues this has created for companies
