How do I re-enable the "Don't ask me again" pop-up, when deleting a file from the Dropbox folder?

[Hagay]

Hello,

I clicked on "Don't ask me again" and I want to return the question that Dropbox will ask me where to delete the files

Hey @Hagay, welcome aboard the Dropbox Community.

Have you tried to uninstall the Dropbox application, restart your computer and then reinstall it, to see if that brings back the pop-up?

Let me know how it goes!

Isn't there a friendlier way somewhere in the settings?

Hey @Hagay, sorry to jump in here, but I just wanted to mention that you can also do this through the desktop app's preferences.

Just navigate to your account tab and hold the 'Alt'+'H' keys (for Windows) or 'Option/Command' key for Macs.

From there, click on the 'Reset File System Warning options' button that comes up and you should be good to go.

Just note that you might need to close and restart the app for the changes to take full effect. 

Let me know if that helps!

Thanks, indeed an elegant way to fix it 🙂
