These options don't show for me when I select the menu. It's just "Layout - Grid, Large Grid, List, Large List", but not the 'Open Files In' section. Any advice? I'm using Google Chrome, not sure if that makes a difference.

How do we disable this completely? No Preview at all?

Thank you.
Please keep the website as simple as possible.
Thank you for this! Dropbox take note: this feature is incredibly frustrating. I'm so happy I have turned it off!
