Can't delete backups

I can't seem to get rid of the numerous backup shortcuts in my main dropbox folder. I have gone to the backup page, unlinked all devices and deleted backups through there, but there are still a bunch showing up in my main dropbox folder that I cannot hide, move, or delete. They all have a shortcut to the "New location", which just takes me to the backups folder that contains no files...It's majorly cluttering up my file org and driving me nuts. Any advice?

    Hey there sea-palm - sorry to hear you're having issues with this.

     

    Just to make sure we're on the same page, can you send us a screenshot of the page you're getting stuck on and the shortcut you mentioned?

     

    Thanks!
