What, exactly,, is the problem you're having? This topic refers to an older version of the Backup feature. The current Backup works differently.
somehow my three main folders (desktop, documents and downloads) that used to live locally on my user macbook laptop were turned into aliases/locked folders folders by dropbox. Those folders now seem to live in Dropbox making my local folders aliases or shortcuts to the original folders that now have been hijacked by dropbox to live in the dropbox account. I do not want that. It's the same exact thing Paul mentioned in his first post. Now i'm trying to figure out how to undo this mess because I don't even use Dropbox or have paid for it ever. Not sure how this happened.
