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...
recently there was an update on dropbox, which auto created a personal folder. it has caused a lot of problem for me and my users.
Is there ways we could remove this feature? some of the file path have moved to the personal folder.
Does anyone have any solution to this?
I have been postponing this again for the last several months. Usually I can go 6 weeks out on postponing. Now I cannot go later than 7/31/24. It looks like I am being forced to do this upgrade.
I don't use Teams Folders and ran the report and it noted that no folder names will be exposed. The report noted "All clear-there aren't any subfolder names and paths that will become visible to team members after...."
One concern is file path. With this new structure, since the username will be added to the path. This will increase the path another 10 to 12 characters depending on user.
Is there a DB report to see file path length and flag any user files that may be too long? I want to make sure I do not have an issue with the path being longer than 260 characters.

Hey Rinconman - thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts on this.
When it comes to the report you mentioned, I'm afraid there's no such function at this time.
i suddenly cannot post bone the "file update" anymore. it wants to force me to to it on 8th august 2024, this is in the middle of an project and we cannot have no access to our files for several hours or days( we have TB of data on dropbox).
how can i post bone this forced unwanted update? we dont need and not want this team structure. we use only 1 account.
please for help!
