My desktop folder got into Dropbox. How can I delete it from Dropbox only?
I don't know how my desktop folder got into Dropbox. I would like to remove it and keep it just on my desktop. How do I delete it from Dropbox without losing it? Thank you!

Dropbox StaffHi there acandee - sorry to hear about this.
Did you enable the Dropbox Backup feature at some point in the past perhaps?
Could you send us a screenshot of how it looks like on your end so that we can have a visual too?
Thanks!
...only access Dropbox from my desktop. Don’t need other access.
...Looks like my computer has been put into Dropbox Backup. Don’t want that. How do I unlink?Really appreciate your help.
...If I click on ellipsis next to Desktop and I click Delete, will that still leave Desktop on the Desktop of my Mac? I would think so but need to be sure!
...I did email screenshots in direct email...not sure how to add them here.
Thanks!

There should be a camera icon that allows you to attach your screenshots in your reply box acandee
This would help me assist further!
I've taken 3 screenshots and saved them to my Recent files but don't know how to get them to you except by an email. Is there an email I can send them to? When I click on the camera icon I don't understand how to get them to you.
