Hmm, are you looking at the desktop app preferences?

 

You can find them, by clicking on the Dropbox icon in your system tray, then on your initials/profile pic and then on "preferences".

Clicking the Dropbox icon in the system tray does nothing and I understand that the windows app was withdrawn.  however, I did download what claimed t be the app and it installed but the only thing I can do is go to file explorer and open dropbox from there.  From there, I can confirm that the Personal and Business accounts ARE linked and I have tried unblinking and linking.  But, when signed into either, I an go to settings and see preferences ... but nothing that adds the second account to file explorer.
