Hi jaroslawistok, thanks for posting here today!
If I understand correct, you'd like to backup some folders that exist in an external drive of yours, to Dropbox, am I right on this one? Feel free to correct me if this isn't the case here.
Have you tried unchecking one of the two folders? Also, did you try to enable Backup using the app's preferences, or you did it online?
If you could send me some screenshots of what you see on your end, that'd be amazing.
Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!

Hi jaroslawistok, could you attach a screenshot showing what you're describing, and also what you see on the backup page?

For you own security and privacy, could you attach the images directly on the forum, not via a shared link, and hide any sensitive information as well.
