Bulk change folders from "can edit" to "view only"

Hello,

 

Is there a way to bulk change folders from "can edit" to "view only" without having to change each folder individually?

 

Thank You

    Hey TechOne, thanks for using Dropbox and welcome to our Community!

     

    I'm afraid there's no way to change the sharing settings of your folders in bulk, you'd need to do it for each folder individually.

     

    Let us know if you have any other questions.
