This is my first time here. I'm interested in learning more about computers. So I joined the community. I'm a researcher by profession. I also love stylish and cool clothing, like ranboo merch.

Hello, I am new here and need some assistance. I have tried everything I can think of to get Dropbox to uninstall, but it keeps reinstalling every time I reboot. It hijacks my desktop and my documents folders, which I do not like. When I try to delete the Dropbox folder, my desktop icons and folders disappear as well. Has anyone been able to completely uninstall Dropbox? Windows 10 had to be completely removed from my system by installing it from scratch on another partition.

Hey David,

Welcome to the DCT Forum.

I have no idea how that could be possible- Dropbox reinstalling itself following each reboot- very strange.

What uninstall methods have you tried- Windows native uninstaller or a third-party uninstaller?
