dropbox-NamespaceExtensionRole.Personal
My Drop box changed its name to: dropbox-NamespaceExtensionRole.Personal and doesn't sync with my account. What's the problem and how do I correct it? Thanks

Thanks for the responses. I decided to try to reinstall DB on this computer, that's giving me problems. To ensure I didn't lose any data I copied the folder to the hard drive on my computer. After that, and for whatever reasons, DB corrected itself, synced with my account in the cloud and renamed itself. DB continues to work well again.
I'm relieved this situation is resolved.

I'm not sure what version of DB I have, but I have Windows 10. I found I had the same issue when I checked my DB files this morning. By shear luck my DB directory changed back to "Dropbox" when I opened Dropbox from the Start Menu.
I normally open File Explorer. Now when I open File Explorer, the proper name of "Dropbox" appears.
Hope this helps.

If you can mouse over your Dropbox icon on the status bar (i.e. the bit near the clock) it will tell you what version number it is :)
