I'm experiencing similar issues and have been told to install the DB for MacOS File Provider. I found it very disconcerting to see my folders disappear from my Mac! I had a particular structure for projects (on my desktop) v records (in my documents folder) which no longer seems available to me. Everything is still somewhere and findable but I am not able to replace the file structure on my hard drive as I would like it. I have paused before the install to see if anyone has taken this action and found it works OK. Reading some of the articles I see that the default location for the dropbox folder in this new system changed when you do this:

  • Your Dropbox folder will be moved to ~/Library/CloudStorage.

How, therefore, do I get the structure back on to my local drive?
