I can't delete folders inside my personal folder

I am the admin of the account and want to delete some folders inside my personal folder, but the option doesn't show.

    Could you navigate a level back (by clicking on the parent folder's name) and try to select the folder and delete  it from there instead fernandaverruck

    Are you doing this on the Dropbox website, in a mobile app or in the Dropbox folder on your computer? Can you provide a screenshot?

      Unfortunately I can't provide a screenshot, but it's drom the browser, not the app.

    Hey fernandaverruck, sorry to jump in here, but could you let us know if this persists after clearing your browser's cache or on another browser?

     

    If it does, we'd need a screenshot to troubleshoot further.

      Here is the screenshot: The 3 dots don't show the "delete" option.
