Even more annoying than any Microsoft product ever released in the history of evil they bring you WINDOWS 10.== Get Rid of Dropbox Icon in Explorer Navigation Pane ==You uninstalled Dropbox and a folder with Dropbox icon remains in Explorer. Microsoft did this because they are jerks. Removal procedure:#Hit "Windows-Key + R", type "regedit" and then "OK".#Go to the paths HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E31EA727-12ED-4702-820C-4B6445F28E1A}\ShellFolder HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{E31EA727-12ED-4702-820C-4B6445F28E1A}\ShellFolder HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\CLSID\{E31EA727-12ED-4702-820C-4B6445F28E1A}\ShellFolder HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{E31EA727-12ED-4702-820C-4B6445F28E1A}\ShellFolder#Double click on "Attributes"#Change the value from f080004d to f090004d#Open Task Manager and kill every "explorer.exe"-process under "Details"#Restart "explorer.exe" with "File -> New Task"1. Change the value 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{E31EA727-12ED-4702-820C-4B6445F28E1A}\System.IsPinnedToNamespaceTree' to 0. This should hide the icon, but it still will come back since Dropbox automatically resets the value back to 1 after a restart.2. To avoid the automatic resets, right click on the folder '{E31EA727-12ED-4702-820C-4B6445F28E1A}' in the left part and select 'Permissions...' and simply disallow the full access. As soon as you hit OK this should hide the folder's content in the registry, if you want to see the content again, re-allow the access (but this also allows Dropbox to reset the value and hence, to show the icon again).source: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Installation-and-desktop-app/How-does-one-remove-the-Dropbox-link-from-the-Navigation-Pane-om/td-p/93970/page/3THERE IS A DOCUMENTED BUG IN WINDOWS 10.
