Dropbox asking me to sign in to the app every time I get on my computer - How can I remove it?
Every time I turn on my Mac, this drop box sign in prompt appears (second image below), and there is also a drop box logo in the menu bar on the top right corner of my screen (black strip, first icon in pic below). I never did anything to make this happen, and I cannot get rid of it.
I have an old drop box account that I never use. I have no idea how this happened, and have no need for this to appear every time I turn on my computer.
I feel hijacked by drop box and I'm really annoyed. Because I don't have a paid plan I can't get any direct help of any kind from drop box. This is really bad and really wrong. I have their stuff on my computer that I can't get rid of and there is no way to ask them for help!
Can someone please help me get rid of this? I'd be SO grateful. Thank you so much. 🙏
Hm... 🤔 ReallyAnnoyedWithDragon @, Is it possible Dropbox application has installed itself? I don't think so. In this context, is there something that prevent you uninstall it (wipe it out of your applications list) if you don't need it anymore?! 😉
Good luck.
This is also happening to me. I have Windows 11 and every time I access the internet the Drop box sign in box comes up. It is so annoying! It seems to be a common problem but the advice that is given involves headings on Settings that don't exist on my computer.
