Duplicate Dropbox Options in Context (Right Click) Menu - Windows 11
Title pretty much sums it up. When I right click a file in dropbox or Winblows explorer tree, there are 2 sets of Dropbox options. With other installed apps and options I've enabled, right click menu is quite long, (full menu no shown below). How do I consolidate these 2 Dropbox option trees into 1? Thanx
Feedback on Context Menu Issues - Current design
Folks: I've been using Dropbox since it was invite-only way back in the day. I love many things about this app. I went pro for a while when my needs required it, and have been free for a bit. Was considering going pro again as my needs are growing, but the biggest thing stopping me from wanting to give you money is your anti-user design. Some context: I'm a power user. I keep a manicured classic start menu so I can keyboard shortcut to anything on my computer. I curate my context menus to work for me and not have clutter. The problem: Every year, you make it harder to customize our user interface in Windows Explorer and our Start Menu. Once upon a time, I could just Move, Rename, or Remove start menu entries I didn't want after installation. You changed it so that the update process reinstalls any I've changed. I can't even hide them, because you overwrite that too. Fine, I made a script that I run after every update now to clean up that garbage. But you shouldn't be forcing this. If you really feel like you have to to help your completely unexpert users, then let us toggle it with a setting or disable it with a registry entry. But even more insane is the context menu. Every good app I use lets me choose whether to add it to the context menu. Most of them only have one entry anyways, or (like WinRar) put them in a submenu item. What you do is force *six* context menu entries, with no way to disable them, and not under a submenu in the menu. Now, back in the day, I dealt wih it the same way. There were various registry edits we could use to clean this up, and I built a script to do it after install. You put them back after every update? I ran the script after every install. But a little while back, you broke that so that even rooting out your registry entries doesn't stop it. Fine, I manually clean them out with ShellExView. And now that doesn't even work. Despite disabling the context menu items there, they're persisting. I can no longer reclaim my context menu for my own. None of the known workarounds work. And you refuse to offer any option to turn that **bleep** off. Now let me explain exactly how stupid and annoying that is. You're taking up 1/3 of my context menu. You hijack the "D" keyboard shortcut in the context menu so I can no longer right click and hit my D key to delete an item. Because now that jumps to "View on Dropbox.com" which I literally *NEVER* want to do. I can't right click an item and "create a shortcut" by using the S key because you've hijacked that to "Share with dropbox" dialogue. The minor issue with this is that you've implemented your context menu badly by overriding default Windows behaviors because you didn't specify currently-unused keys and that you didn't put them in a submenu item. The MAJOR issue with this is that your anti-user behavior of refusing to allow us to customize these items like every good app does AND your intentional breaking of every workaround that users come up with to circumvent your dark pattern design. This goes from "bad choices" to "malevolent choices". Stop trying to take over my explorer window. Let me customize what goes in my own context menu. And when we find workarounds to fix your shoddy design, don't make it worse by intentionally breaking the fixes.
How to expand left sidebar width on the website?
How can I expand the left sidebar width. I have many levels of files and I can not see the names of folders that I want to move files into. As you can see below, all I can see is the first letter of the folder "A" and there are several of them. I want to be able to expand the left sidebar so I can see the names of those folders and not just the first letter. I was able to do it before, but not now for some reason. Thanks!
Dropbox Paper no longer functions in dark mode
Dark Mode suddenly (this week) no longer works (Mac OS Desktop App across 2 machines, mac ventura and mac monterey). Left sidebar with list is dark. Writing / Note area is white. ("on", "off", "auto" settings have no effect ... it's always white bg). Blocks which used to show tools are now just black bars in the app - I can click them but the tool icons are no longer visible. I've written Dropbox support and received a ticket number and response which was entirely irrelevant. (they told me to "use a different browser" ... except that I'm not using a browser, I'm using the desktop app.) Any help appreciated.
Sometimes, team members can't see the context menus on Windows 10 and 11
We use Dropbox as our primary server. We're a PC-based company, and the majority of us are on Windows 11, though some are still on 10. We have 10 team members, and we are using 3% of our available space. Several of our team members are having sporadic issues lately where they cannot see Dropbox options when they right click in file explorer and therefore are unable to copy Dropbox links or make the file available offline. We've had to offload Dropbox in some cases and relink - in another case where a team member accidentally dragged his file into a team folder (something that is not supposed to be able to happen according to support) we had to redo the whole thing, as we could not drag the folder back where it belonged. These issues have been happening only over the last two weeks, and it seems odd that it is happening to multiple people. Anyone have any idea of what may be happening here? It's hampering our productivity.
The Share option is no longer available in the desktop version of Dropbox in Windows
Share is no longer available in the desktop version of Dropbox in File Explorer on my laptop. I have quit Dropbox in the Taskbar and re-launched it, but share is still not there. It was there 2 days ago, but after a Windows update, it's not there anymore.
