I started getting this prompt today (Oct 16th) and it is very annoying. Considering I spend a good portion of my day moving files around (each stage puts a file into a different folder), today I was likely prompted over 150 times -- and I'm probably lowballing.
Considering I created the entire dropbox network for my company I fully realize that access is limited, each employee has access to what area their work pertains to. I find it incredibly stupid to be prompted every time I need to move a file.
I created the suggestion (I couldnt find one started), if anyone agrees go upvote it!!

We also have a user with this issue. She has never encountered the error before but has come in this morning and is getting the error message pop up every time she tries to do anything which she's a little frustrated with.
This is only the first time she's seen the error and nothing has changed recently and she's a fairly intensive user of Dropbox.

Same here,
Working with Dropbox support, started last week, our users get this popup for any file modification/creation/move.
Permissions for teams folder are basic with no limited access, super annoying.

This just started for us as well. We are using dropbox business advanced. This is affecting our productivity and just started recently. Please allow us to remove this message.
