The local Dropbox folder keeps re-appearing, even after deleting it.

I want to totally remove Dropbox from my Windows 11 PC. I have tried all on-line suggestions and the folder still comes back after I delete it. I have turned off the wireless so nothing can update it...

Hedwig29, can you send me a full screenshot of the message you keep receiving by Dropbox? 

 

Also, when saying you don’t want to work through Dropbox, do you mean that you’d like to remove the desktop app from your computer?
