How to sync folders from D drive

I installed drop box in PC, but i can't sync files and folder that are saved in D drive, it only allows me to sync files and folders from C drive,

I've tried to change the folders that i need to sync from the drop box preferences/backups/manage backups but it shows only the folders installed in C drive. (see photos attached)

Is there any way to sync folders from D drive, or I must move folders from D drive to C drive in order to be synced?

 

Thanks in advance

    Dropbox only syncs the files and folders that are located in your Dropbox folder. If you have files or folders on another drive that you want to sync, you need to move them into your Dropbox folder or, if the other drive is external, use the Backup feature to back up the entire drive.
