How to completely disable Backup function?

I did NOT ask for Backup feature.

Backup just came and messed with my Desktop, not asking for any authorization.

Every time I open Preferences then Backup, Manage, three folders (Desktop, Documents, Download), are already checked. Why???

Now, since every **bleep** morning when I turn on my PC the DropBox Backup asks me to backup two units, two Ram Disks that must NOT be touched at all, I really have enough.

How can I completely disable Backup feature?

 

Thanks in advance,

Fabio
