This is a temporary fix since checkmarks will reappear upon the next Dropbox app update which are frequent.ĭoes anyone know how to disable these green check marks?Īs a band-aid, until the root cause is fixed, I execute this bash script to make the offending green checkmark image files go away #!/bin/bash Mv emblem-dropbox-uptodate.png emblem-dropbox-uptodate.png~ignore

Mv emblem-dropbox-uptodate.icon emblem-dropbox-uptodate.icon~ignore I am on Ubuntu and following technique will temporarily remove the green checkmarks simply by removing the offending Dropbox green check-mark file cd ~/.dropbox-dist/dropbox-lnx.x86_64-23.3.16/images/emblems however the big green check-marks which are shown to indicate the file has finished its sync are entirely unnecessary and obstructive especially since they are shown in perpetuity It's good that Dropbox shows its blue icon to indicate a file is currently getting sync'ed.
