The help instructions (below) say choose Settings but there is not Settings link.  There is only Preferences which leads to the following links ... none of which are about Security:  General, Account, Backups, Network, Notifications, Sync.  (I am on a 2021 MacBookPro 16 running Ventura 13.1)

 

I cringe with each upgrade on Dropbox because it just gets more complicated and painful to use.

Hi @janeynow 

 

You are using the desktop software to try and do what you need to do on the website. 

 

As step 1 says you need to sign in to Dropbox.com (i.e. the website) THEN click on your avatar at top right and then settings.

Thank you thank you thank you!  

 

I wasn't aware of the distinction between the desktop software and the website.
