Re: Dropbox update has caused Windows File Explorer to slow so badly I cannot work

Thank you for this. I may try this but for now I've managed to get it work okay ish by gradually making more and more available offline. I'm afraid to make changes now because Dropbox is the worst for suddenly deciding to reindex or reup/download the entire file system of several hundred thousand files with the slightest change! It loses me hours and hours at work which I cannot afford. I would have liked an opt out at the start.
