Hey prawniator, it seems that the "file name" option cannot be removed, even with the naming convention, so apart from the "date captured" that will get added, the file name will remain as well.
I will however, pass your feedback along to our team, so they can take it into consideration for any upcoming changes to the feature.
If you have any questions, let us know!

Dropbox StaffHey prawniator - thanks for using Dropbox and posting on our Community!
You should be able to set your preferred naming convention on the Capture folder via the website as outlined here.
Could you give it a go and let us know if it helps?
Thanks so much!
Hi Walter,
Thank you for getting back to me and sharing the resource.
I've tried the Organise > naming convention, however, it's still the same.
To give you an example, the screenshot I took for the article below is this:

The date and time are there, but I just want to disable Dropbox to automatically add whatever it is before the date.
The renaming convention doesn't seem to have this function.
Is there any other way?
Thank you!
