It just makes clientreleases look lazy 😞
@clientreleases where are the release notes? I cant believe dropbox released something that changes folder structures with no warnings.

.... this one, however, in their defence has been in place for many many many versions and has been subject to multiple email notifications and also popups/warnings on the website and in the app to tell people that a new update was coming thanks (notice - sacarsm here) to a change in Apple API requirements.
Most recently it was updated in June this year: https://help.dropbox.com/installs/macos-support-for-expected-changes
Mark I'm guessing there is also going to be issues with the impending Windows API update. Two versions of Dropbox App updates from different locations offering separate storage locations .... (Microsoft Store & Dropbox.com)

"You won’t be able to install the Dropbox app to a location outside of your system drive with the Microsoft app store update of Dropbox for Windows
If you choose to download the Dropbox for Windows update from the Microsoft app store, you won’t be able to install the Dropbox app to a location other than where you have Windows installed (the system drive)."

Thats interesting, apologies I hadnt seen that - I don't have any Windows connected devices so don't get those updates.
