Can I get back to the old Dropbox website interface?

I was out on leave for three months, and it seems the format has changed, and the way I used to add flies to different folders is no longer as easy as it use to be. Is there a way to go back to the classic format?

    It sounds like you're referring to the file system update for Team accounts. This change is rolling out to all Team accounts and cannot be reverted. For more information, refer to the following help article:

    The format on my screen how I used to find my docs/folders has completely changed.  Not to mentioned it just changed back in July August.  I just got used to that and started to like it and no it changed again.  Is there anyway to hide everything that moves all my docs and folder choices down so far?

     

    Hate this and tired of format constantly changing and not being informed or given a choice.

    There are no options in Dropbox to control that. If you have an ad blocker in your browser it might have an element hider that allows you to hide portions of a page, but doing so may limit the functionality you have on the website.
