An option to clear the Sync History

As near as I can tell people have been suggesting that you change the program so that people can delete the sync history to protect confidential information.  You appear to have ignored those requests.  I want to add my voice to those begging for the change. If you don't, I'm going to have to stop using DropBox.

You appear to have ignored these requests for years.  Why?

This idea isn't important to most people, but to doctors and others concerned about protecting confidentiality, it's important to not have information hanging around in the cloud or on the computer.  It can't possible be a difficult problem in programing to permit us to delete this information.

Need an easy clear feature to CLEAR the sync history - this should be a basic and easy to find and use feature for privacy and security reasons. They “say” if you log out and back in it clears the sync history it does not.

New idea (Possibly)

 

When you are uploading files (syncing) would it be possible for drop box to remove the uploaded ones from the list?

It's very important for HIPPA that health care professionals be able to clear these files.  Why aren't you allowing us to clear old files?

to be honest I only want when uploading/syncing documents for it to clear the ones it was completed and only to show me the one it s working on doing and those next in the list
