Feature request: cascade context menu

[josch87]

My context menu in Windows Explorer (Windows 10) is very cluttered. In WinRAR, for example, the menu items stored by WinRAR in the context menu can be cascaded so that my context menu becomes clearer.

I currently have 8 Dropbox menu items on the first level of the context menu. The point "Smart Sync" is already cascaded.

It would be great. if Dropbox offers the option "Cascade context menu" in the settings of the client, so that all Dropbox functions are behind only one menu item of the context menu.

Thank you for your suggestion, and if you have another idea to share, please do!

Totally agree. Too many items for Dropbox context menu and never use most of them.

This idea is going to need some additional support before we can share it with our team.

We've updated the status here to encourage more users to back it up!

If you posted this as a feature question on Twitter you would get overwhelming response to support this change.

need this as well

maybe windows need to support context menu manager

Yes! And  everyone else too! It's totally out of hand when I have to sometimes even slowly scroll to use one of the most used functions of all....PASTE. 

And this is another of those "Shouldn't need X votes" to do it. It's the right thing to do for everyone although most people don't even realize it until after you make the change.

Context menus are getting out of hand. I had to remove Dropbox's context menu with registry editing — it's that unbearable. Now I have to rely on Dropbox app to make any changes — it's bothersome, but not as bothersome as having a gazillion of menu items everywhere. Cascaded menu is the only sane thing to do.

Please listen, Dropbox!

There are just too many Dropbox items in the context menu. All it should have is 1 instead of 7 currently. Please fix.

Thank you for your idea, while we can’t take every idea forward we do regularly re-review and will update you if anything changes!

I know I will be hated for this, but I don't want the menu to cascade.  I want it to stay flat.  Wait... don't hit they reply button yet. 

How about this. 

I know that my example is a stand alone program.  And I know that there may be some red tape with Microsoft.  Well Dropbox, why not be the first to do it?

Very large menu, please compact this with config option similar to winrar, cascaded context menus and be able to select context menu items.

Example not sync with dropbox and history versions can go inside smart sync...

Please, it's very annoying!!
