How do I remove the Dropbox icon from the Windows 10 file explorer?
Since upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 10, there is a Dropbox icon in the Windows file explorer navigation pane. I already have a link to Dropbox and other cloud-storage options in the Quick link...
Answer to Alexis G:
What is it that you don't understand? He clearly states that he doesn't want the icon and plenty of other cloud services manage to operate on the OS without adding an icon in the navigation pane. There's simply not much else to the matter, the navigation pane is customizable and it should be. Dropbox should write their code so that there is an easy way of getting rid of their icon in the navigation pane if the user wants to do that. I prefer having the Dropbox icon in Quick Start, right next to Google Drive, and that the icon itself is not expandable. For me the Dropbox menu is often expanded when I open File Explorer and I have to scroll through hundreds of folders to even close it. I don't like it being that way, and I should be able to change it.
Your last post is just plain ridiculous. Whether Microsoft loves Dropbox or not they shouldn't allow Dropbox to force their icon upon us like this. But Dropbox is of course ultimately responsibly for this and should of course immediately give us users an option to get rid of the navigation pane-icon.
