How can I disable the push notification when copying Dropbox link from PC

I don't want dropbox to tell me I just copied I file. I know I did, because I just told it to. 

How do I disable that? I've already gone to Windows' Action Center and disabled Dropbox' icon and notifications there, I disabled every notification in preferences->notifications for the PC program. 

Yet I keep seeing them. 

 

 

 

 

How do I get rid of this for good?

    If you're unable to use the Windows 7 notification settings to suppress this, then there won't be a way to do it. There's no option to do so in Dropbox.

    There is no option to disable that notification from within Dropbox. Disabling notifications for Dropbox in Notifications & Actions within Windows Settings will prevent it from showing (I just tested it).
