I indeed want screenshots saved to Dropbox.  I have the checkmark in "Share screenshots using Dropbox."  This used to work fine, but now it does not. Microsoft keeps asking if I want to save screenshots to their Cloud. I've said no thanks.  But how do I get screenshots again saved to Dropbox?

When I log into dropbox and go to settings, there is no import tab. . . any other suggestions?

You do this within Preferences of the Dropbox app on your computer, not on the Dropbox website.

Please show me how to get to the "Dropbox Preferences".  I can't locate it within the app.  Thank you.
