I keep seeing camera uploads notifications every time I launch my Windows 10 computer.

How do I stop getting DropBox messages about "Camera uploads"? I do not want camera uploads but every time my desktop (Win 10) wakes up, it has those messages all over my screen. I can provide a screengrab if necessary.

    Hey waltinvt! Thanks for posting on our Community today. 

    Have you made sure camera uploads hasn’t been enabled on your desktop app? 

    Please feel free to send me any screenshots you may have and I’ll take a look. 

    Keep me posted for any updates.

        Thanks for these screenshots, waltinvt! Have you selected the “Never for this device” option and these messages keep appearing?

        Are you connecting any other device to your computer, before they show up, like your mobile device or a camera by any chance?
