Can I disable the "Delete file for everyone" message?

I am getting the error message that requires me to OK "delete for everyone" when I want  to remove a file (see below). I saw the discussion board on this topic - the screen shots in the thread I read...

    Hey maxvan,

    As I mentioned previously, there isn't an option to disable to notification you're seeing there at the moment. The "Delete everywhere" notification that has been discussed on the Community does have this option. However the notification you're seeing is a different one that currently doesn't have the option to disable it.

    Sorry that I can't help any further with this!

July 2024 and this still hasn't been addressed by Dropbox. We do a lot of file management and this constant notice popup is a real inconvenience. Please add a means of disabling it.
