Removing Dropbox from a Mac with Voiceover? (self.Blind)
submitted by Nighthawk321
Hello,
I'm extremely new to MacOS and Voiceover and I'm trying to completely remove Dropbox from my Mac because of all the space it's taking up. I went to applications and deleted it from there, but I still have it on my Dock. I also still see it in Finder and wasn't able to delete the entire location, only the folders inside. Any help would be appreciated.
Edit: I also decided to take this approach because I couldn't figure out how to scroll through selective sync settings in Dropbox.

Never used Dropbox myself, but assuming that when you mention having it still in finder you are talking about the side bar, then both that and the icon on the Dock might be caused by a running instance, so either just exit it normally or force quit it by pressing Option+Command+Escape, selecting it in the table that appears, and pressing Force Quit.
