Exclude folders on Mac
Hi,
I have a Dropbox Plus account running on a mac in which I have a folder that I want dropbox to ignore when syncing. So it doesn't need to be stored on dropbox.com and only on my desktop.

Hi Lusil,
Somehow the option appeared when I was checking if the folder was shared. So now the dropdown did have the "don't sync to dropbox.com" option present. Not a clue what caused the change. Maybe a reboot? But thanks for the reply otherwise I wouldn't have taken this action:)

Dropbox StaffHey there Pindarodge, let's see what we can find.
I could only recreate the same options that you see when selecting a shared folder.
Could you let me know if you're trying to choose a shared folder to be ignored?
Looking forward to hearing back from you!
