Dropbox shared folder owner change and deletion
Hey guys,
I am a forum novice, so hoping someone can assist me, as there is no support call centre for Dropbox, and my support tickets have gone unanswered.
I am the owner of a shared folder on dropbox for a company job.
I am no longer on the team and would like to transfer the ownership of the folder and delete the folder from my dropbox, as my subscription has expired and I no longer need the space.
I want to delete the folder from my side without affecting the other peoples access or content once transferred.
How do I go about this?
It's quite urgent so if anyone could assist me soon I would be most grateful.

First, change the owner, then remove the share from your Dropbox.

Thanks Rich as always for being so helpful to our users. I just want to add something for others that may have a similar question.
If you are a member of a Dropbox Team plan, your admin will need to help you leave the team. The help center article delow provides details, but in short, there is an option to convert your team account to a personal account. That action will remove you from team content, but allow you to retain private content. The admin can then take subsequent action to reassign ownership of any team content you owned to another team member.
