Dropbox changed offline folder to online. Asking to sync again.

Dropbox moved folders that I had left offline to online and I have to download everything again. The HD has space occupied but it is not downloaded

This icon is not coming from Dropbox Fabio_Mota - do you happen to have any other 3rd party apps that might be syncing or backing up your files like One Drive perhaps?

 

If so, you might need to close them or uninstall them completely to bring back the Dropbox syncing icons.

    I uninstalled OneDrive. I give up, I think there is no solution. I'll have to sync everything again. Thank you for the help
