How can I change my email address on one of my devices?

Do you mean that you need to sign in to a different Dropbox account, one that uses a different email address?

Hey Martin D.22! Can you please clarify if what you mean is what Rich mentioned here? 

Otherwise, I'd like more details on what you'd like to achieve exactly and which Dropbox platform you're currently using (website, mobile or desktop app).

It isnt possible to do that. You can only have 1 email address per account. 

So if you want a different email on a device you need to use a separate account as Rich said. 

I need to change the Dropbox email address on a notebook PC that is running Windows 10 to a different email address on that device in order to have access to an existing Dropbox account

So you just need to sign out of one account and then sign in with a different account. Refer to the link that I provided earlier. It explains how to sign out of your account, then you can sign back in with the correct email address.

You need to unlink Dropbox from your device and then relog on using the email you wish to use. 

Before you relog on, however, make sure you have either moved the files out of the Dropbox directory, or, deleted them, or they'll sync to the account you change. 

I have tried that
The sign out seems to occur
The Dropbox app shuts down
The Dropbox App restarts
A signin dialog starts WITHOUT asking for any credentials
Dropox signs back into the email account that I Do Not Want To Use

This method does not allow me to specify another email address

But, thanks for trying to help

The Unlink advice mentions a security tab
I do not see a security tab in the Windows App
I do not see a security tab in the Dropbox browser interface

This advice does not seem to apply

Thanks for trying to help

Hey Martin D.22, let me also jump in here!

Keep in mind that the app will most likely connect to the same Dropbox account that you've signed into the Dropbox website.

Make sure to sign out of both the Dropbox website and the app, then sign back in to the correct Dropbox account using the website, and then try the same on our app.
