Remove Dropbox options from the context menu.

Hi, recently Dropbox has started cramming my Explorer context menu with all of these options I mostly don't plan to use:   Come on. Do you think it's ok to just dump all your stuff in ther...

Hey christianius - thanks for joining the discussion here. 

 

Could you let us know your device's OS version and the version of the Dropbox desktop app installed there as well? 

 

When did you first notice this by the way?

Hi Walter

 

I'm the original poster of this thread, thank you for intervening, after so long.

 

My Windows 11 is version 10.0.22631 Build 22631.

My Dropbox app is version 200.3.7099.

 

My screenshot looks very similar to what christianius posted. The problem has been happening since before April 23, though I can't be precise about when it started.

 

This is such an abusive occupation of an OS menu... as I wrote above, there needs to be some consideration and some humility here from Dropbox developers... please reach out to them. Thanks
