Opening files from the Dropbox icon

[Wu-Bacca]

Currently when I click the Dropbox icon on my menu bar, it opens up one of two tabs - either my Notifications or my Recent Files (whatever I clicked last). What I'd like my Dropbox to do, upon clicking the icon, is open the folder that contains all my Dropbox files and subfolders. This is what used to be the default setting and for some reason it's now a two-click process. Does anyone know how to change that?

Hey @Wu-Bacca , I've owned Support for the Desktop Client for a good few years now, it's never done that in my time. I'm afraid this can't be changed.

Sorry if this doesn't fit your needs.

It has always been a double-click to open the folder. A single-click (or right-click) has always opened the menu.

Good to know. Thanks for the feedback, Ross!

Hey

, glad to hear this was clarified!

If it's not too much trouble for you, would you mind taking a minute of your time to fill out a survey sharing your experience using the Dropbox Community? You can access it here: http://bit.ly/2lNKIxT.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
