How to make Dropbox invisible in File Explorer?
Hi
I successfully moved my Dropbox folder to the D folder because I often accidentally moved files to DB. Now it is safely in place; not always visible when opening explorer. The problem now is that it still appears as a folder under the desktop. Properties shows the folder location as D drive. . If I hide the folder, it also hides the DB folder on D. Can anyone advise how to hide or delete this folder while keeping the D drive directory?

If you added Dropbox to the Quick Access area in Explorer, then you can just right-click it and select Unpin from Quick Access. If this is the Dropbox icon that's below the Quick Access area, then it can't be removed or hidden.

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately it's not pinned. If it were, it would be visible in Quick Access folder.
