Can you send me a full screenshot of what you see on your end, so that I can guide you from there?

How can a Dropbox staffer outright lie to people and say that a feature your development team implemented is not a Dropbox issue, but rather an OS issue? This doesn't happen on Windows if the person doesn't install the Dropbox app in the first place.
I would give the benefit of the doubt to first-line technical/customer support. I think the underlying problem is that the devs implemented this "feature" and didn't document it, so first-line support had no knowledge of it.
What _is_ frustrating is that there's been no acknowledgment of the error since it's been empirically proven to be a dropbox "feature", and it appears not to be documented anywhere customer-facing.
