    Hi liyi,

     

    It's possible that there's a background process still running. Since you've disabled Dash as a startup app, try restarting and attempting the deletion again.

     

    Alternatively, you can open Task Manager and look for a Dropbox Dash process running that you can end, then attempt the deletion again.

     

    If this doesn't work, let us know and we can reach out via email to take a deeper look.

     

    Thanks,

    Ben
