I am having the same issue. IT will open and start up, sync a little but then close itself. I am able to reopen it a few times but after a while, it will simply open the Dropbox Folder location and not the application until I restart my entire PC again.

It's simply a product/feature that's available to all Dropbox users. If you don't want it, you don't have to use it. Edit: Oh, wow, I got like 3 badges for posting this. Good job at making Dropbox bloated, team. Good job at not recognizing the difference between a forum and the Dropbox service. They're separate systems, with the forums running on a third-party application that's unrelated to Dropbox.

I agree. Major deficiency for camera uploads in Dropbox. Not a microsoft issue as Google knows how to do it. I have over 10,000 images and waiting to reorder to most recent is painful and dumb. Also, scrolling is much slower than google. Sorry Dropbox you lose on this functionality

Thank you SO much for this. I've been dealing with this for a few years now and had no idea why or how to fix it. I always had to tell my clients that the images would appear way darker than they actually were on the Dropbox website. Once they are downloaded they look as they should. But this solution allows the black and white images to not appear darker than they are!

Hi, Put the full path in quotes. For example: dropbox exclude add "/your/path/to/Dropbox/test folder"

Hi Rich, I had a similar problem and so I followed the same general directions. I went to the Shared area and simply removed my name from the list of share recipients. I thought that would fix the trouble completely. UPDATE: I began to write that I still see the entire folder and all contents of the project I was shared with. I am no longer working on this project and so wanted to delete the Dropbox and entire working folder from my pc. As I said, it was still there, but when I went to take a photo to attach with this note, I see now it has been removed. (except Dropbox) What this means is, your PC and Dropbox server will take some time to 'refresh' and recognize you are no longer shared, before removing, about 3-5 min. Thank you for the tip.

Two words: tamper monkey. Or you could do what have done, and changed my Dropbox bookmark to https://dropbox.com/home instead of https://dropbox.com, so that I go straight to my files. When I want paper (I do use it occasionally, it's kinda neat) then I navigate there.
