How to install an older version of Dropbox and keep it at that version

Since all my machines updated in background to the version that removed all of the actual useful settings, and Support telling me I need to be on an older version to get that basic functionality, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the last good version of Dropbox for Linux.  I'm running Linux Mint 21.3. 

Can anyone point me to where I can download the last good version, and maybe provide some basic instruction on how I can freeze it at that version? I'm guessing there's a file or a folder I probably need to make read-only but I can't figure it out.
