You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
I have a folder I would like to share but it gives me an error saying I can't share because there is a shared folder below. How do I find this folder to move it? There are hundreds of folders and no ...

Hi there
(I hope this is not already somewhere else posted.)
Was stumbling across this thread as I searched the web for a solution for the exact same problem. Looks like Dropbox has removed a privacy related option (who knows after years which folders he joined..?)!
As I totally agree with all of you, I wanted to contact Dropbox directly (actually, still preparing the e-mail).
Then I came across a hidden workaround, though not a ideal solution:
1. Make sure you're signed in to dropbox.com
2. Go to this URL: https://www.dropbox.com/support/email/sharing
3. Click "Email now"
4. Look at the dropdown in "Which shared folder or shared link are you having trouble with?" There you go with the shared-folder list. At least you now know the folder-names
This actually proves, that it would be no problem for Dropbox to integrate the same functionality again.
As I said, not a solution, but a workaround as long as this feature is not available.
UPDATE: If you cannot see the dropdown, make sure your ad-blocker is disabled and reload the page.
