Since the update the client started trying to confirm every file deletion.
This was not so before the update.

same thing for me, really annoying
samertmThanks for the bug reports! I've let the team that owns that feature know about the issue.
Do you think you could attach a screenshot of the warning box that pops up when you try to delete a file? And were you seeing this when deleting files inside of a shared folder, or for non-shared files?
Seeing this when deleting files inside of a shared folder and also for non-shared files.

Thanks! Right now there's a bug where checking "Don't ask me again" (or "Ne plus me demander" in your case) doesn't saved unless you click "Delete everywhere" (or "Supprimer partout"). We're working on fixing the bug internally, but as a temporary work around, you can delete a file that you don't care about and check "Don't ask me again"/"Ne plus me demander". Then that option will be saved and the box shouldn't show up for similar deletions.

Hey!
I just got some additional clarification from the team that owns the dialog boxes that show up when you try to delete a file:
- There's another bug that caused a small lag between when you select the "Don't show again" checkbox and when we stop showing future dialogs. This is probably why you saw multiple duplicate dialog boxes. The team is working on a fix for it. For now, the workaround is to check "Don't show again" for all the dialogs that come up, even if they're the same, and the setting should be applied after a short amount of time.
- After thinking about whether pressing "Cancel" should apply the "Don't show again" checkbox, the team decided against it because they don't want to confuse people by updating their settings when they click "Cancel". If you have any feedback about that, let me know and I'll forward it on to them.
Thanks again for the feedback, and thanks for using Dropbox!
Best,
Samer
