Hello everyone,
Our engineer's have looked into this and have provided a solution that should assist. If you follow the steps below, this should ensure that your folders are restored to the default for your PC. If you have any other issues, feel free to create a new thread and we will follow up with you shortly.

6) select the option to “reset OS folders”

Dropbox StaffHey there dhainlin; thanks for posting on our Community and sorry to hear you had issues with using our computer backup feature.
