That's not a function of Dropbox. You'll need to find a way to do that using the options available in Windows. Typically, you would just create a new shortcut to Explorer and give it the path to your chosen start folder as an extra parameter.
Also is there way to pin Dropbox folder in File Explorer open so it does not collapse every time I close File Explorer?
Likewise, that's not something Dropbox has any control over, and it's not really possible in Windows either. See here.
