Moving a shared folder, only for me

Hi

 

I have a music folder for sharing/collaboration with a buddy.

It's located in the root dropbox folder.

Now I want to move it to a subfolder, but only for my computer.

Will moving it in my dropbox have effect on where it's located in his dropbox?

I want to prevent any changes on his setup.

Thanks

    To get to the chase, no, moving a shared folder on your end won't be affecting its location on your collaborators' devices. 

    Let me know if you have any other questions!
