    Click the link on the left side that says "files" you will see the old view. Its the first item under recents. 

    If you do not see it, then I suspect it is a browser rendering issue. Please try another browser.

Yes, that is all very well that I can acces the "regular files and folder view".

What makes me tired is that I seem to have to click "Files" everytime i enter the Dropbox site, i.e. I allways start in Recents. There should be a (default) setting but I can't find it.
