How to remove all Dropbox options from context menu?

So dropbox insert itself in context menus of Windows 11. I don't need those options. Surely there is an easy way to deactive them?

    The biggest issue is that it will reinstall it every time there's an auto update - which is about once a week. 

    There are no official ways, you will need to find some sort of registry hack or similar. 

    Sorry. 

    Also, try considering finding and upvoting any similar ones on the Ideas board.
