Here's the explanation: https://help.dropbox.com/installs/windows-support-for-expected-changes

It took me four days to pass the first line support and finally get this link. Now I need to figure out how to re-install while opting out (apparently an option) and eventually clean up the mess this left my drive into. Hopefully support will now guide me through it. 

I never got any form of warning that this major update was coming. It's ridiculous.
