Reconnecting existing folder from another drive
I recently lost my hard drive and had to reinstall windows. My dropbox folder was on an auxiliary drive so I still had it. I just needed to reconnect it. I downloaded and followed the advanced settin...
This is what I did. That is what I saw on a different thread because I did not want dropbox to create another folder and syn all the same info. The original is "E:\Dropbox". The weird part is, once I installed the software again, the folder changed it's appearance from standard window folder to the blue box with the word (Personal) in parentheses beside it like before. But when I selected "E:\" the folder location, it created a folder by the same name and began syncing every file that is in the original in the same location as the original.
I need to know how to select the original folder as the location to sync? Is that only possible at the advanced setting on install?
