Team member able to see all of the account's file activity in the desktop app. We don't want this.

Team members are able to see the activity of all members (including admins) on the Desktop Application, especially in the system tray window. The administrator/owner of the account does not want this to be seen.

    Hey bbowmanATL thanks for posting here today! 

    Would you be able to send over a screenshot, in order for me to have a visual of this too? I'd appreciate it. 

    Also, when did this start happening? While you're at it, please check your account's plan page, and let me know the subscription you're using. 

    Did you notice this behavior specifically when using our desktop app, or when visiting your account online too?

    Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!
