Removing external user from all shared folders

Hi Dropbox and forum,   There seems to be no way of removing all access of an external user to files/folders shared to him.   Lets say you have a team folder with "Projects", and in this fold...

Hey TonyEnglund, thanks for dropping by to share your thoughts on this.

 

It's true that this isn't possible at the moment, but I found this idea which kinda echoes what you had in mind. 

 

You can have a look and upvote it as well to  show your interest in this. 

 

Let me know if you have anything else to add or ask.

Thanks Walter ,

 

But, that it on the other end of this problem. Sure would be nice to be able to bulk remove users from ONE folder, but my question is to remove ONE user from all folders. Both ways should of course be possible to do.

    Oh, I see - thanks for pointing this out, Tony.

     

    In that case, you might be interested in the idea outlined here or maybe this one?
