I need to download and install Dropbox on my C Drive.

Hi 

I have a new C Drive with a new installation of Windows 11

All my dropbox folder and all the files are on the E Drive

Now I need to reinstall the Desktop App on the C drive.

Is it necessary to delete the dropbox folder on E drive and then start again with the Doenload from my existing cloud???

Thanks

    Hey HB11, let's jump right into this! 

     

    You mentioned that all of your folders and files are currently on the E drive. 

     

    Are we referring to the same machine, or a different, old one? 

     

    If we're referring to the same device, then you can try following these steps, in order to move your Dropbox folder to the desired path. 

     

    If you have any questions, let me know!
