Installed on windows 11 - folder path now changed to C:/Users/name/Dropbox/Dropbox
Installed dropbox on windows 11 - folder path now changed to C:/Users/name/Dropbox/Dropbox
Looks like a .dropbox.cache folder a level above the normal dropbox folder
This creates a problem when I open the files on the new windows 11 PC - my CAD program can no longer find the files as the path has changed and would have to manually relocate all the file again.
The folder path was C:/Users/name/Dropbox on the previous windows 10 PC.
I'm still using the win10 PC and it keeps files synced between the two.
Is there a way to reinstall dropbox on the windows 11 machine so it doesn't have the double dropbox folder structure?
