Can you remove the space in the dropbox folder name ("Dropbox (Company-Name)")?

[Vincent M.9]

I'm using my companies business dropbox account. And it created a folder called "Dropbox (my companies name here)".

Is there a way to remove the space between "Dropbox" and "("? I don't want to have a space in the path. So the folder name will become "Dropbox-Company" or "Dropbox_Company" or something, but not space.

It seems impossible.

I've been waiting for years for this one also.. I just can't understand why the tool does not have the ability to set a custom value here. You can 'move' the hard-coded name, but that isn't a very fun solution. I really just HATE the naming convention - parenthesis are for functions.. it drives me crazy to just LOOK at those names.

Spaces... and Parens... truly an astounding choice for a mandatory folder name.  Please fix this, spaces and parens have no place in folder or file names in any kind of serious business environment.

I also need to rename the dropbox for business folder without a space.  None of our scripts work with dropbox for business.  Dear Product Owner in charge of features I empower you to prioritize this change request, sincerely, Voice of the customer.

You know honestly I don’t think anyone in dropbox cares

Why does the business/team name need to be included at all for those of us who use Dropbox Business as our only DB account?

I suppose DB doesn't care about this problem because their target clientele are spreadsheet pushers, but they need to understand that the decision as to which cloud providers can/should be used within an organization often falls to those of us who encounter this issue.

This last answer from DB is joke right?

Spaces in paths - truly a "Worst Practice"

Hi @terrestre!

Welcome to Dropbox Community.  We do our best to be in touch with all of you and acknowledge your feedback, even when there is no update  on the matter.

I hope my addition here was helpful for people that don't know if feedback in such long discussions in our Community is being actually being reviewed.

Hi @Fiona,

It is hard to take your response seriously when we have been complaining about this issue for well over five years.  It is an issue that is clearly important to your customers and yet you (Dropbox) repeatedly offer no solution and no information on why a solution is impossible.

Is it too much to ask to get a real answer on this (either when we can expect a fix, or an explanation as to why it is impossible) as we have been requesting this bug be fixed for so long (while paying you a large ammount of money)?
