    Spoke to Dropbox support and this might (hopefully) not be intentional and an issue with the latest early release version. If you need to revert, do this:

    1 Log in to dropbox.com using your web browser.
    2 Click on you account picture/avatar at the top right corner of the page.
    3 Click on "Settings".
    4 From the "General" tab, scroll down to the section titled "Preferences" and uncheck the box next to "Include me in early releases" if it is checked.

     

    That fixed it for me.

Hey pavsiingh, thanks for posting on our Community and taking the time to share your thoughts on this. 

Just to make sure I got this right, can you send me a screenshot of how this looks like on your end? 

If you could also include the version of the desktop app you're using at the moment, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!
