The notification icon won't disappear from app.

Question

I updated to the newest version for my Mac but I can't get the notification badge&nbsp;to go away on the icon on my screen. How do I remove it?

Hi kmbryant, happy Monday!&nbsp;
&nbsp;
If you open the Dropbox desktop application by clicking the icon, do you see any yellow messages that could be pending notifications?&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Let me know more!&nbsp;

No, there are no notifications. I cannot get rid of the message that says Dropbox for MacOS is now ready. I have gone through the process of downloading it a ton of times. I think the problem could be that I don't want any folders automatically added and the only way to do that is to say that I don't want to do it right now so I wonder if it won't complete the process.&nbsp;

Hey kmbryant, sorry to jump in here!
&nbsp;
So, you still see the notification about updating the app, right?
&nbsp;
Can you send us a screenshot of that?
&nbsp;
Also, which version of the Dropbox app are you using? You can hover your mouse over the Dropbox icon, to see that.

Here you go.&nbsp;

Thanks, kmbryant!&nbsp;&nbsp;I actually meant the one you see when you click on the Dropbox icon, the "Dropbox for macOS is now ready" one.&nbsp;Does that still appear there?
