You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

My AppData folder is more than 24 GB. What gives?
Hi,
I have up to 24GB in Users/UserName/AppData/Local/Dropbox/Update/Install.
It contains hundreds of subfolders all with some version of Dropbox clients.
See attached.
I cannot delete them ...
I've uninstalled Dropbox and I am trying to delete these files while logged in as Administrator but still cant. Can't even change the persimssions or the owner of these files. See attached.

Dropbox StaffThanks for the images. Could you clarify if you're signed in under a normal user profile, or the Administrator profile, when making the deletions?
Generally, that profile is hidden by default, and it isn't possible to elevate normal users to that level.
Deletion wouldn't be possible if you're on a normal user profile, since the app was installed in the Administrator account according to the filepath you have there.
