How to move my main folder back to the Dropbox folder
Hello, for some reason I suddenly find my main Folder (MERCE) in the Backup Folder, instead of being located as before inside Dropbox. C:\users\***\dropbox\MERCE (before it was like this), see below...
Hi Megan
Thank you for your support.
Please see here the path in preferences and down where my folders are now (in the Backup under MyPC (MerceAcer)
I did try some weeks ago to move my main folder MERCE intro dropbox but after a while a message popped up saying something I cannot remember.
I did not dare to try again, but I will try again and let you know.
Below the path:
Thank you for helping me.

Dropbox StaffHi MPM, thanks for the screenshots!
So, on the first screenshot you can see the path of your Dropbox folder, where it is located inside your computer.
On the second screenshot, it looks like we're referring to your Computer Backup, and the name of the actual device, hence you see the name there.
If you wish, you can disable Backup, and just keep a copy of the content, inside your Dropbox folder instead.
Hi Megan,
Thank you, your solution is what I would like, but I'm afraid that if I disable the backup I may loose all the information because i will not have a back up.
Or should I first do a copy of the information in the Backup?
Or is it that when I disable the backup this information moves to the path in the 1st screenshot?
I have a confusion also: We can see the information in the Backup but why I cannot see the original information somewhere and only the backup?
Sorry with this bombarding questions but with your help I start to see a closer solution but still have some things I don't really understand.

When you disable your Backup, its content will move back to their original paths if you choose that option when disabling it MPM.
When you say original information, can you clarify what you mean by that? Which folders are you referring to?
Hi Megan,
Ok to the first answer.
Second, when I refer to original information I mean my files. I thought that when you have files in Dropbox there are 2 places with information: one with the files and if you have the backup activated those files are copied also in the backup folder, so actually you have two files: the visible ones and the ones stored automatically as a copy (backup).
