Opening and Printing Dropbox links quickly not longer working
I have been using drobox for years now and I have always been able to copy Dropbox links links for my PDF packing lists and invoices, then I paste them into excel spreadsheets and or google docs so that the team can easily find the correct document and print it when needed. When we clicked the link it would open the PDF into a standard viewer or "preview window" just as it would if you opened it from a file folder, it worked great because you could simply click the link then right click and print. Instead, within the last few months Dropbox changed something and now the PDF link opens into a Dropbox branded tab, now if you right click and print it prints a screenshot of that tab rather than the multipage document that you want. It's terribly obnoxious and a waste of my time. It should not take 5 clicks to print a document! I wish I could right click the link without previewing it and print, I hate how fast I end up with 30 tabs open! I need the work around to get it back to the way it was or I will be switching to OneDrive, and I hate one drive.
It seems like at around the same time One Drive started trying to take over, I am constantly creating and saving new documents like this to dropbox and when I would export form excel it would automatically go to the last folder I saved into from that program and it worked great. Now every time I try and save One Drive swoops in and if I don't click out of it and into the correct folder in dropbox things end up saved to One Drive instead, but the only thing I ever use OneDrive for is QuickBooks spreadsheet sync... Could it be a one drive issue???
Please help!!!
