Need to see if your shared folder is taking up space on your dropbox 👨💻? Find out how to check here.
As title mention. It feels like invasive when a program does thing like that in your computer and you have no control over it - I made a cleanup of my context menus and only Dropbox offers no option to remove it. pCloud drive offers it, see picture:

I would like an update from Dropbox on the proposed plan to remove these options from my right click windows menu. There is 6 options and removing them manually only has DropBox repopulate the shortcuts after some time. I've been a user for about 15 years.
This is bad public relations. I have to say this is a step in the wrong direction as far as listening to your users.
Could you be so kind to provide an update on this?
I opened a new idea a few days ago that is the same as this one. I did not see this one until just now. Here is the gist of my comments. In my new idea I also expressed my anger at dropbox for its unwillingness to make this change for years. But I did not include that here.
------------------------------
Dropbox continues to force a navigation pane icon into Windows Explorer without providing any user-facing option to disable or reposition it. Even after I remove it from the registry, Dropbox re-inserts it on every update or restart.This is an unacceptable override of user system preferences and violates UI conventions by prioritizing your brand icon above system drives. I demand an official method to disable or reposition this icon permanently, or at least an acknowledgment that users should retain control over their own file browser UI.
Why would you not just share it with the products team anyways so they could easily and quickly implement the feature? If it makes sense and is easy to do there is ZERO reason not to just implement it. What a cop out comment.
It helps by allowing user to keep control of their Context Menu which can quickly become populated by programs - for someone who just want a drive, this addition in Context Menu just make it too crowded.
