Re: Microsoft files on Windows 11 are prompting for a Dropbox sign up every time I try to open them.

Got it.  I went into Outlook, Excel and PPT and the box is unchecked in all but that annoying popup is still showing.  

So far, I don't know that there is anything more to turn off...  I have:

In Office:

  1. Turned OFF connected experiences
  2. Turned OFF AutoSave files to Cloud
  3. Turned ON Save to Computer by Default
  4. REMOVED Dropbox as a connected service

 

In Dropbox:

  1. Turned OFF Show Dropbox in Microsoft Office as a save location

    Even if i have clicked the close button and a word doc is open and then i open another one it asks again to login to dropbox

    What idiotic code are you guys pushing - all you have to do is nothing....... dropboix worked great 10 years ago how do you make it worse.............. FFS
