Provide option to turn off preview mode
The new feature where all files open in preview mode causes extra clicks each time I open a file. Occasionally, the underlying app doesn't open and I have start the app, browse to the file, and open it which is even a longer process. I'd like the ability to turn this feature off.
I would like this turned off. It's like a dam pop-up in every window super annoying
yes please, this is terribly annoying.. a superfluous feature since Dropbox provides a "large grid" option.
I just found the solution to this
-click on the hamburger icon ☰ and check under “Open files in” - If “Quick view” is checked, choose “Full screen” instead.
thank you! I loved how Dropbox became silent to all our pleas for help!
For the love of Pete, please provide a way to totally disable the massive preview sidebar. It's such an annoyance, and such a waste of scree space.
I would like to know too! Windows 11 OS.
I would like to turn this off too as it wastes time. I am using a laptop running on Microsoft
