Not sure what you'll be able to tell from this but see the two Dropbox icon/folder structures above

Thanks for the update and the screenshot, simontranspeed! And hi from me as well!

Are those actually two Dropbox folders or just two instances of the same Dropbox folder in the sidebar?

If both instances take you to the same Dropbox folder that works correctly, syncs, has all the syncing icons and right-click options, etc., can you simply hide one of them from your sidebar?
