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...

Dropbox upgraded overnight and now my files have been "moved". I cannot open anything. It is stating it has been moved.

Dropbox updated automatically on my computer and my colleagues computers and has altered the file structure.

I found my files but WHY ? did they make such drastic change ?   It took a very long time to "update" and now im not sure if all the various shared folders I have work anymore.
