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...

Please incorperate the ability to disable the new personal folders you created in the latest update. We have a business account with you and have no need for that folder to be on our computers. It just causes confusion and files being placed in the wrong folders.
Thank you

The private folder for each user is a serious file management problem.
We understand that administrators can view the contents of these "private" folders, but we think that's problematic from a privacy standpoint (even if notified). Also, that workflow creates work for our administrators and doesn't build trust with our users.
Our business account is for business files. We don't want users storing private or personal files in our business account. We have a hard enough time preventing people from storing files on their desktops; we don't want another location where files can become disassociated from workflows.
We understand this might work for other organizations, but there should be an option to disable this "feature" for all users.
