You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

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 StaffHey Rinconman, thanks for posting on our Community!
For starters, note that even though you can't completely opt out of this upgrade, you can keep postponing it until you're completely ready to move forward.
As for the advantage this offers, the new Dropbox Business organizes your team’s content into a consistent folder structure called the team space. Each user is also given an individual (and hidden) team member folder for their individual work.
The member folder always has the same name as the user and it’s the best place for users to keep work stuff that they don’t necessarily want to share with the entire team.
Even though the team member folder is inside the shared workspace, only that specific user can see or access its contents.
The member folder is also where things like saved screenshots will go, and will be the default location when users choose to “add to Dropbox” from other applications.
Team admins will also have access to this folder via the "Sign-in as user" feature.
Shared folders and shared links to files shouldn't be affected by the upgrade at this point.
As for the folder paths you mention, you seem to got them correctly, but I can't be 100% sure without seeing the actual paths.
I hope this helps a tad and please let me know if you have any other questions.
My DB for Business is scheduled to upgrade in a few days but I may postpone again. I have a desktop where the DB folder is on a D drive and not the C drive. I read one post this was an issue. Will the upgrade mess that up and create the new DB folder on the C drive instead of where I have it now on the D drive?
I am not using any Teams folders. I have five users and we just all use the personal folders and have some folders shared with both internal and some external users. From what I read, there should be no issue with my upgrade other than the on system with files on the D Drive.
