"View your recycle bin for Dropbox" - how can I disable this?
I'm not sure if it's a recent addition or if I simply didn't notice it before, but recently, at the bottom of the open "Recycle Bin" on Windows, it has a bar along the bottom that says "View your rec...

I found where this problem is coming from and located.
If you have done anything with sync setting in Dropbox, this will appear in registry.
Delete ONLY the blue highlighted entry RecycleBinUrl.
It should then disappear in the Recycle Bin explorer area.
It worked for me.
FYI... IT IS NOT A WINDOWS OS level problem. It is created by Dropbox.

Thanks for posting on the Community, anastrophe!
Can you send me a full screenshot of what you see on your end, so that I can guide you from there?
I’d also like to know the OS version of your computer, as well as the app version of the Dropbox app that’s installed on it.
Keep me in the loop.

Well, I've tried twice to post my reply with a screenshot, but both times the reply just vanishes into the aether.
Windows 10 Pro 22H2
DropBox v.200.3.7089
Perhaps there's a size limit, so this third try I'll shrink the image down. I'd have expected some sort of an error to have been displayed.

Hey anastrophe, thanks for the screenshot, and added info!
It looks like this is directly linked to your OS, and not Dropbox-specifically.
In any case, your feedback regarding this has been very valuable and I will endeavor to make sure your voice is heard.
I'll forward your feedback to the appropriate areas so we can continue to improve.
Thanks!

Interesting! I guess I'll have to dig a little deeper, it's such an oddly specific 'addition' to how the recycle bin works.
Thanks for checking on it!
