Is the "Admin Console" a feature for paid plans?

I am the owner of a (free plan) Dropbox folder that is shared with others.  

 

I do not seem to have an 'admin console' on after the log in page.  Is the admin console available for paid plans only?

    Hey Singing, wishing you a happy Tuesday! 

     

    The Admin Console is a feature used by team admins on our Team plans. Therefore it's indeed for paid, Team plans. Is there something in particular that you wished to achieve with this perhaps? 

     

    Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!

      So I have a folder that I have shared with a few dozen people.  Today I became aware that other viewers of the share folder can potentially see the email addresses of all the participants that have permission to view the folder, which is completely undesirable.

      How can I avoid this situation please?

        Hey Singing, you might want to create and share a link to the folder instead.

         

        The recipients of the link, won't be able to see each other's email address.

         

        It needs to be a "view-only" link, though.

         

        I hope this helps!
