Error when trying to create a top level folder from my local Dropbox folder
This is still going on? I cannot create a top level folder through Windows file explorer, even though I am the owner of the account?
People have been bitching about this for at least a year. Logging in to the website just to create a folder is cumbersome and aggravating.
It used to work through explorer, why did that change?
You should change it back, it doesn't seem like it would be difficult and would result in fewer complaints and possible departures to other cloud options.
