Files in Dropbox showing up as "Copy of xxxx.xxx" in my recent items lists
I use the "recent items" lists quite often. For instance, I right-click on the MS Excel icon down in the system tray, and it brings up the most recent items I've opened in Excel. I can open the file and work on it from this list. I've done this for years on multiple Windows 7 machines with files located in DropBox. A more recent machine is giving me headaches though, and I'm not sure if it's related to Windows 10 or not. Now, instead of listing all the files I've worked on, it lists each file numerous times, and the files are all listed as "Copy of XXXX.xls" rather that just "XXXX.xls". How can I make these "Copy of" copies go away, so I only see a list of the files I've worked on?12KViews0likes10Comments
