Hi Friends,

 

Does anyone here know if I can I remove a subfolder from a main folder and make it it's own main folder? 

 

I don't want to have to upload and relabel the subfolder but I want to pull it out directly and have it be a Main folder.

 

Thanks in advance!

Welcome to our Community, @movementartist.

 

Are you using the Dropbox website? If yes, then you can move the subfolder to your root Dropbox with these steps and make it a parent folder instead. 

 

Can you clarify though what you mean when saying you don’t wish to relabel the folder? 

 

I’ll be able to further help this way.
