How can I copy and paste email addreses into Dropbox in order to share folders and files?
There was some correspondence on this subject in 2019 but it doesn't seem to work now.
Hey trevor34smith, thanks for the screenshot!
You mentioned that when you right click, you can't paste the email there. Have you tried using the CTRL+V shortcut to paste the email there?
Hi Megan,
I use a Windows desktop computer.
I highlight the email address that I want to copy,
Right click and then select Copy.
I then go to dropbox, click on the "Share" next to the relevant folder - which brings up a mini-screen with a box where I Enter the email address. (It offers me a couple of people who I have Dropboxed before, but these aren't the person I want to share with). I right click to bring up a list of possibilities, and I select Paste.
Nothing happens.
Any more thoughts?
Cheers, Trevor

Dropbox StaffHey there, Trevor! Thanks for letting me know more about this.
Have you tried a different browser by any chance? If not, can you give this one a go, and let me know if you notice the same kind of behavior there?
I was using Chrome when I encountered the problem.
I've now tried doing the same stuff using Firefox and it's a bit worse. The menu that opens when I try to paste the email address into Dropbox has "paste" greyed out, so I can't do it at all.
Any more thoughts?

Hi trevor34smith, do you have any screenshots you can provide? Just make sure none of your personal info is shown there.
Is this what you want by way of a Screenshot?
