Disable syncing status column on Windows Explorer

I have tried to disable Status column in Windows Explorer, however, it keeps coming back.  Can you tell me how to permanently stop showing this column?

Hey Rob M1 - welcome to the Community!

 

I'm not quite sure to what you're referring to exactly. Could you please send us a screenshot so that we can make sure we're on the same page?

 

Thanks so much!

      Thanks for the screenshot Rob M1 - much appreciated. 

       

      These columns are handled by your computer's OS and not Dropbox. Could you let us know why you'd like to disable the syncing status column on your computer?

        It is in the way.  Can we show the syncing a different way through our OS (windows 11)?
