      <description>&lt;P&gt;I installed Dropbox on my MAC. My iPhone and iPad require me to login. MAC does not require login. What do I need to do so that signing in on MAC is required. Thanks!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hey &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1622804"&gt;@Bwilly329 &lt;/a&gt;, welcome to our Community!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Indeed, once you sign in to the Dropbox desktop application, it keeps you signed in.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;This is how the desktop app works and there's no way to make it require a sign in.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;You could &lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/account-access/sign-in-out" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;sign out&lt;/A&gt; of the app, but the files will still remain on the computer.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;A workaround would be to use our &lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/sync/selective-sync-overview" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;selective sync&lt;/A&gt; feature, which will help you remove entire folders off your Dropbox folder, in case someone else is accessing the computer.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;However, anyone with access to the Dropbox preferences, can still add the folders back, if they know how.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I hope this clarifies the situation, but let me know if you have any questions.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
