Can’t delete Dropbox folder from pc
I deleted Dropbox from my PC which runs on Windows 10. There is still a Dropbox folder that shows up under “Desktop” in the file explorer navigation pane. There seems to be no option to remove it. Ho...
- After looking at a few other forums I found out that even after uninstalling Dropbox it leaves remnants in your system. To remove the remaining useless folder in the nav panel you have to hit Windows +R, then enter “regedit”. Next navigate to HKEY_Current_User\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop and in the Desktop folder there’s another named NameSpace. In there was a file with a long name that the info panel showed was a Dropbox file. Delete that and it removes the leftover from the nav panel.

Dropbox StaffHi there, is this folder in the quick access window, or Favorites? Are you able to right-click and remove it from there?
If the Dropbox desktop application has been fully uninstalled, try rebooting the machine to see if this helps.

- I have uninstalled everything else. It’s not under quick access and when right clicked there’s no delete option. Restarting did not remove it.
