Why can't I download files and folders from Dropbox to my computer?
I am new!
this system as presently experienced is worthless ---so it can't be right? Can't download any folder or file unless through email
1)don't you have simple step by step instructions to do...
Hey Korky K. ,
Thanks for reaching out!
The "Downloads" folder is a default one where all the downloads you initiate from your browser go to. This is specific to your browser (and computer) settings and is not related to Dropbox.
There are ways to change the default location of your (browser's) downloads depending on the one you use and you should be able to find more about how to do this using a web search. The option to change this can usually be found in your browser's preferences or advanced settings.
I hope this helps!
Why hasn't dropbox answered this question
The option used to be there
I will consider cancelling dropbox and moving to icloud or google etc so that I can work with this idea as I do it when going to clients to save carrying files or large files
Having the mirror of dropbox on PC is just crap - that's not the way I want to work
So bloody frustrating!!!!!
If no answer I cancel account and leave this month and also tell others
