I can’t create new folders or move existing ones from my root Dropbox
This new file system for teams is absolutely awful and workflow-destroying. We can no longer create new folders or move folders on the root of the dropbox. That such a basic feature. Whenever I want ...
Hi Wayne! Thank you so much for sharing this feedback with us. We're actively working on improvements to both of these experiences, based on your feedback. In the meantime, if you right click at the top-level, you should have a "Create folder and share" option. It will redirect you to web to complete the folder creation, but you should be automatically signed in, which hopefully makes it a little less onerous. I will share an update here as we make improvements. Thank you again for your feedback, we really appreciate it!

I have not been able to find a Create folder and share option, and even if I did, I access Dropbox from several different accounts, so I am not always logged into the relevant one at that moment. Sometimes, I'm not logged into anything at all, which wasn't a problem when I could create folders on my computer, confident they would synch the next time I went online. This workaround is unnecessarily onerous. It's been months. I still haven't discovered any advantage to the new lose of functionality or heard any defense of it. Please restore the old system!
