    It seems being patient did the trick (or an automatic Windows update change something).

    All works fine now. Thanks to all who tried helping 🙂

Hey Rustboy, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

 

Would you mind sending us a screenshot of how the website appears for you?

 

Also, what was the result, when you tried from an Incognito window and from Edge?

 

Thanks!

Hi @Hannah

 

I see this:

And it's exactly the same in an Incognito window or on Edge.

    Thanks for the update, Rustboy.

     

    Is it possible to check with your company's IT department, to see if some sort of setting is blocking something for our website?

     

    And also, please make sure that your browsers are updated to the latest version. If they're not, can you update them, if that's not restricted by your company?

      Hi Hannah

       

      Thanks for your hints.

       

      Regarding company restrictions I cannot find any. It has always worked before by the way and nothing has changed from our IT side (at least htat's what they told me). I also scanned through the chrome policies and there is no restriction whatsoever towards dropbox functionalities.

       

      As I have administration rights I also made sure I have the latest version of Chrome but unfortunately I still cannot see my files.

      I hope we canstill find something else to try?

       

      Kind regards

      Stef

        By the way Hannah, I also tried clearing ONLY the dropbox cookies (to not mess up my other websites and tools):

        But no result.
