Hi koreanfriedchicken, thanks for messaging the Community.
We appreciate the feedback on this matter.
We take all comments into consideration when improving the Dropbox site and services for the future.
Similar to something already called out in October here, my team had the local machine dropbox directory under a path like this:
C:\Users\[common org name]\Dropbox\[org file name]
It appears the update is forcing my team to now have a different file path
C:\Users\[common org name]\Dropbox\[specific user name]\[org file name]
My team uses links between powerpoint and excel. Under the old model, any user could refresh a link because we had a common file path. Under the new model, the links will not work between users because dropbox is forcing a specific username into the file path.
This is breaking our processes. Any workaround that someone knows about? From my perspective, our org may have to stop using dropbox and find an alternative solution if we cannot come up with a fix.
