You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

Can I disable the "Delete file for everyone" message?
I am getting the error message that requires me to OK "delete for everyone" when I want to remove a file (see below). I saw the discussion board on this topic - the screen shots in the thread I read...
Hey maxvan,
As I mentioned previously, there isn't an option to disable to notification you're seeing there at the moment. The "Delete everywhere" notification that has been discussed on the Community does have this option. However the notification you're seeing is a different one that currently doesn't have the option to disable it.
Sorry that I can't help any further with this!

5 years later and this is still an issue. I have a laptop running Windows 11 and I do not get this pop up notification when deleting files. However I just got a new desktop PC at my office, also Windows 11, and for some reason deleting anything from Dropbox I am forced to confirm my intent to delete with this obnoxious notification. I am the admin of my company Dropbox account and I see no option to disable this anywhere.
I have just deleted 20,000 files and am getting this popup for nearly every file. How on earth am I meant to be able to work this month?
