OLD look vs NEW look

[Rattex]

How can I get the OLD look back so it looks like a regular folder? Also, I find I cannot right click and copy files to my desktop and vice versa, it seems I now have to copy and paste, what's up with that? The older way was MUCH more user friendly and it also felt more like a regular folder like any other one on my desktop. Is there a way to revert back to an older version of DropBox where things looked normal?

Hi there @Rattex, thanks for posting your question here and for sharing your feedback for the desktop app. 

You can go back to using your Finder/File Explorer by changing your desktop app's preferences. 

There's more information on this, here. 

Could you try that out and let me know if it does the trick for you? 

Give me a nudge whenever you have any updates for me, cheers!

I got this far, but now what do I do to make it look like it used to, I want the OLD way back how do I revert?

[Rattex]

I don't like this new look... I want to go back to how it was before!!

Under the General tab (that you show on your first screenshot), there is the option to Open folders in at the very bottom. 

If you click below it, where it says Dropbox desktop app, you should be given the option to change it to your Finder/File Explorer. 

Try that out and let me know how it goes, thanks!
