When I try to follow these instructions, I don't have a Move option.
Windows: Manually move the Dropbox folder back to its default location
In that place it says change location.
How do I move my files in this scenario? Can I simply create a Dropbox folder in my "D" drive and choose that location? I'm trying to make space on my "C" drive.
Hi @Deb918, welcome to our Community!
If you wish to change the path of your Dropbox folder, all you'd have to do is access the app's preferences (just like you did on the screenshot you sent me).
You can see that next to the Dropbox folder location it gives you the option to change its location.
That should do the trick. Want to give it a go, and let me know how it goes?
Thanks!
