How can I unlink my paired accounts and remove the personal from my computer?
I really feel like this should be incredibly simple and clear but I'm not getting it!
On my work PC I have 2 dropbox accounts synced (my personal and my work account) . I want to fully remove my personal dropbox from the PC without deleting the files of course. I cannot find anything on the windows dropbox app that says anything about syncing (admittedly I am a mac user and still a bit clumsy on windows) and all I can seem to do is delete files but then they are deleted everywhere.
I want to completely remove all files from my personal account from only this one computer but keep them intact online and on my personal macbook.
I don't understand why this is so unclear but I can't figure it out!

Hi again, kameyering!
I think this is the setting you're looking for; can you try those steps to unlink your accounts and let me know if they worked?
Cheers!
