Go into your account settings on the Dropbox website and turn Early releases off. After that, install one of the stable builds of the Dropbox application. If you have the beta installed, you will always get the beta updates.
I tried to delete the folder that contains all my computer files in my dropbox, but it says that "the operation could not be performed". How can I delete the folder that backs up my computer files?You don't need to delete the files in your local Dropbox folder, or the folder itself, to leave the beta. Just reinstall a stable version.
If you really want to delete the Dropbox folder and everything it contains (i.e. all your files), uninstall the Dropbox application from your computer and reboot. You should be able to delete the files then. If not, then check the file permissions or other applications that may have a lock on the files.

Dropbox StaffIf you're already in contact with a support agent, they would be in a better position to assist you further.
so per the support person, my issue has been "referred to another team" or something like that.
My question to the community....can I just delete Dropbox and re-install it. I swear I'm going to sit here and wait and then that is what I will be told to do anyways. I literally cannot use my desktop because if I save a file, it's not syncing anywhere else...the desktop is in a virtual never-ending sync.
