Hi, I have a problem. I accidentally linked my local folders to Dropbox (on Mac) and now I want to delete them from my storage, but there is no deletion option.

You likely have the computer backup feature enabled.
For cancel backup I have no save button.
It made my folders not active
Deleting the dropbox doesn't help, I spent a lot of time on it, I want to get my system folders back and delete this program.
Sorry to jump in here, but did you follow the steps to disable the computer backup feature from the Help Center article @Rich linked above @Tojen?
