Constant pop-up notification when I delete files on my desktop. Can I remove it?

I accept that this feature of asking what a user wants to do appeared without warning.

(I mean dropbox dont even know what a change log on release notice is so every thing is a mystery)

 

I accept that I needed to go to each machine and one by one create then delete a file and click the "Don't ask me this again" before clicking "Delete everywhere".

 

What I dont accept since its clearly super neglegent of dropbox is to...

 

ASK ME IT AGAIN ON THE NEW VERSION UPDATE!

 

Does dropbox not know what the meaning of "Don't" is ?????

 

I have just had to remote onto 6 machines and repeat this "create,delete,click,click" process again, from version 52.4.58 and now 52.4.60, why a machine that just used to add its files remove its files and sit there doing its stuff, now needs me to check it for a version update and manage a pointlessly repeating question is beyond me.

 

Can Dropbox please actually store the responce to the prompt and pay attention to what it stored.

    version 60.4.107 rolled out, and what do you know

    Every single machine hooked up to this account started asking about if I want to move files out of dropbox, and if I want to delete files from dropbox. AGAIN, so tht check box means nothing, you think the only way people move or delete files is with explorer eh?

    Sort this [removed] out, add a preference to not be asked such stupid questions.

    Edit by moderator: Please refrain from using profanity on these forums or your posts, or account, could be removed. Thank you.
