How do I use remote wipe to delete the Dropbox folder from a member’s device?
If you’re the admin of a Dropbox for Business account, you can use remote wipe to delete the Dropbox folder from a team member’s linked device if it's ever lost or stolen.
Note that you can only delete the team member's work Dropbox folder. If a member has also connected a personal Dropbox, they'll need to use remote wipe themselves to delete it.
