    Ah, I see now - apologies for this SteveB00  

    In this case, you should be able to delete it without affecting any of your files in Dropbox.

    Let me know of any updates!

Thanks for the prompt reply, especially this time of year!

The Dropbox app is  v214.4.5217.

I don’t recall being asked for specific folders, just offered the opportunity to sign into my DB account. I may well have this wrong as I’ve installed and authorised a few items today.

The Dropbox location is: /Users/< my username>/<business name> Dropbox.

Thanks again, Walter.

Can you send me a screenshot of where you noticed the "This is an unlinked Dropbox." message too, Steve? 

As for accessing the folders you mentioned, you should be able to set them to be available offline on your computer instead of online-only by right clicking on them and selecting the relevant option. 

If you don't get any Dropbox options when right clicking on the files and folders within your Dropbox folder, please send me a screenshot of that as well.
