How Do I stop Dropbox messages from popping up every time I open my computer? This is invasive and not asked for.

Hi,

There are 2 boxes that pop up every time I turn on my computer:

1. "To get more out of dropbox,set accessabilty."

2. "Set up Dropbox"

But, I already did. I don't really need annoying, invasive notices from Dropbox every day!

Thanks.

Hi @Dodgeman, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

 

Are you referring to enabling full disk mode for the Mac OS Dropbox desktop application?

 

For the second option you mentioned, what does 'Set up Dropbox' do when you click on it?

 

This will help me to assist further!

Hi,

I didn't click on it because i wanted to stop it from popping up for no reason! I already chose a password & user name. I feel that should be enough. No other online businesses do this. Just dropbox does this. I want it to stop. Now.

Thanks,
