This was corrected on the server side. If you are having this issue, you need request a ticket to be put in. It can not be fixed on the user side.

We've already discussed this in the thread. Recommend going back and reviewing. But in short...within Chrome, deleting history, going incognito, logging in a different computer and even a different browser (MS Edge) comes up with the same issue. Though, if I have someone else log in the same computer/browser who also has a Dropbox account...back to 'normal'. The issue follows the user, not the browser and not the computer. I feel like we are just spinning our wheels when the same questions are asked over and over. It's an interesting issue that is documented in the video, though I'm coming to the realization there is no fix. The 'glitch' is on the server end. But if you truly have a fix and it's not a silly one like, have you turned your computer on and off...I'm all ears. But I don't think there is a fix on the user end.

I'm having the same issue as Gregg Hall. I cannot find any way around double-clicking the folder to get into said folder.
The only time the hand shows up is if I hover over the check box next to the folder name. But that is obviously not helpful since checking that box doesn't let me go inside the folder.
I'm also suspecting an issue on the server end. Perhaps the Javascript code has been altered or corrupted?

Hi everyone! I hope you’re doing well.
If you wish, we can open a ticket for you instead and investigate this further, since we’ll have more account visibility this way.
Let me know.

I'm open to this if there is potential of resolving the issue. I checked my dropbox account and it's still doing it. I've been hoping one day I would log on and it's fixed...unfortunately not happening.
Thanks
