That check box is not showing on my preferences/import page as others hav reported. I have two options Photos Only and Photos and Videos. Using v57.4.89
I have another program I use for downloading my images to my PC.
I have all options in Autoplay but downloading photos set to do nothing but photos and it is set to my program I want to use.
I get the pop up box every time I put in a blank USB drive, and it adds a file to it .dropbox.device. I do not want that to happen at all.
It seems my only option is to remove Dropbox from my system until you guys figure this out.
