  1. Press "Windows + R"
  2. On the window that appears, type in "regedit" and press Enter
  3. Go to: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT > * > shellex > ContextMenuHandlers (as shown in the screenshot below)
  4. You will see a folder called DropboxExt, right click on it and choose "Delete"

@Parziphal It works! Great! Many thanks :sunglasses:

 

It would be great if Dropbox, like almost any other less ranked software company (winzip, etc.), would let us users organize the context menu as we please :dizzy_face:
