New named Dropbox structure
I am a user of DropBox Business, on Windows 10.
Last week, I suddenly realized that the shortcuts to some of my Dropbox folders were broken.
A quick look learned me that the structure had changed...

Although not conveyed in the changes email, this has re-worked a number of shared folders structure from:
I haven't seen the content of the email but this change is described in the help article describing the upgrade, which I'm pretty certain is linked in the email (from other posts I've read).
Notes:
- The naming convention of the Dropbox folder will change from “Dropbox [team name]” to “[Team name] Dropbox”.
- Existing team folders will move to the team space:
- /[team name] Dropbox/[Team-name]’s shared workspace
- Each team member will now have their own personal folder called a team member folder:
- /[team name] Dropbox/[Team member’s name]
- All other content, including shared folders, will be moved to each member’s team member folder.
Also, while you could have delayed the upgrade for 30 days, I've seen no way to opt out of this change. This appears to be a change that Dropbox is making across the board, for all Business accounts, and there's likely no going back.
Unfortunately what you have shown wasn't in the email we got from Dropbox. Opting out for 30 days is also a not an option as this is critical for our LOB apps to function.
We simply wish to keep using Dropbox the way we always have, otherwise we will need to move to another product.
Seems crazy that even with our 14,000 yearly bill that no one is able to assist us.
