New named Dropbox structure
I am a user of DropBox Business, on Windows 10.
Last week, I suddenly realized that the shortcuts to some of my Dropbox folders were broken.
A quick look learned me that the structure had changed...

Create a symbolic link that points C:\AB\Dropbox (MUSTER) to C:\AB\MUSTER Dropbox.

That helped, to create
mklink /J "C:\AB\Dropbox (MUSTER)" "C:\AB\MUSTER Dropbox"
and to integrate the folder Dropbox (MUSTER) into boxcryptor.
@Dropbox: Please give us a reason why you have renamed the root folder and not given the user the option to keep the old spelling of the root folder.
@Dropbox: Remember that you can only remain a leader (or competitive with the big ones) if you explain your actions.
