New named Dropbox structure
I am a user of DropBox Business, on Windows 10.
Last week, I suddenly realized that the shortcuts to some of my Dropbox folders were broken.
A quick look learned me that the structure had changed...

4 years agoHello Eastsite, sorry to hear about your issue.
The Dropbox folder is named automatically, and it can not be manually renamed.
Each Team Admin, should have been notified prior to the upgrade, about the incoming changes.
You can request renaming the folder as feature, by up-voting it in our Share an Idea part of the forum.
Hope this clears things up.

1) You, as the Dropbox team, write this as if it is self-evident that Dropbox customers have to deal with these deficiencies of Dropbox. This is an unsatisfactory customer support. Does Dropbox not see the problems Dropbox is causing with this renaming of the dropbox root folder?
2) Sorry, the button "Vote for this idea" on this site https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-ideas/Renaming-Dropbox-root-folder/idi-p/230261#comments does not work.
If the button doesn't work for me today and the button hasn't worked for the last 5 years either, then you can assume 4400 votes instead of 44 votes....
