I accidentally logged in with the wrong Google account on the desktop app

I had to install dropbox on my new computer and when I went to activate I just chose use Google for login as I remembered doing that before.. But that was with my old email and now it has made a new account with my current email and I don't know how to delete it so I can change the email in my real account to my current email..

anyone got any suggestions?
