How can I disable the Microsoft Co-Authoring feature from Office 365?

In our company wehave been using Dropbox Standard for more than 10 years. I use it on my PC with Office 365. Few days ago I installed Dropbox App "Dropbox for teams" into Office 365 (Excel) on my PC following the  instructions: https://www.dropbox.com/cms/content/dam/dropbox/warp/en-us/dropbox-app-integrations/microsoft/guide-for-microsoft-co-authoring.pdf?_camp=19458&_tk=modal_campaign_format

After installing it, I am not happy with functionallity of Teams for Dropbox inside MS Excel. I disconnected app from Dropbox\Settings\Apps section, but it still appears inside e.g. Excel. 

HOW TO GET RID OF IT? How to uninstall Dropbox for Teams for from Office 365 on PC? Please help.
