Where is the gear icon on my Dropbox desktop app?
Anyone know where to find the gear icon on Dropbox?
I have Windows 10 and finally, finally found the gear icon and preferences. I agree that finding this should have been easier -- it should appear when one clicks the DropBox icon on one's desktop. But it doesn't. I created a very quick and dirty set of 4 screenshots that shows, in a very simple way (which is how I can understand these things) how I got to it. It starts with (1) the "show hidden icons" button that looks like an up arrow, on the lower right-hand corner of my screen (the area known as the "systems tray" - then (2) I clicked the DropBox icon (has a little check-mark on it) - then (3), a little box opens (labeled, "up to date" and lists "recently changed") and, lo and behold, the blasted gear icon appears in the upper right corner of it, so (4) I clicked that and got a dropdown menu that included "preferences." My very amateur set of screenshots is here:

Click on the Dropbox icon on the status bar (i.e. near the clock, usually top right). It is there.
Hi. I have the Dropbox app. I have clicked the dropbox icon in the system tray. A window comes up. But there is no gearbox in the upper right hand corner of the window that has opened up. I am running on Windows 10. Thanks.

I am trying to paste a screen shot, but every time I try, I get the message, "An unexpected error has occurred" with no explanation about what has gone wrong
