Dropbox is infinitely duplicating all the files in the folder

This is solely a visual issue, the files themselves aren't actually created. As soon as I refresh the page, the files are gone...

Dropbox Community ModeratorHey from me as well starlightof!
The fact that when you refresh your page the issue resolves itself for a few moments, and that changing the browsers helped some other members has me thinking this might be browser-related.
But no worries, we'll do the best to locate why this might be happening.
Chrome was a new install so I believe it should be the latest version, right? What about Firefox? Have you checked you're running its latest version?
As a last step, I'd suggest that you restore your browser to its default settings and try again. If none of these work, don't hesitate to let me know.
Chrome was a fresh install and I'm sure Firefox is all updated as well.
I still had this issue in the morning today, however I just tried to load all the videos forcefully and it seems like it fixes the issue when it finished downloading all the files. And, for some reason, after that it also started working just fine on Chrome. Seems like I can't replicate it anymore. Honestly, must be some kind of a Dropbox bug in my opinion, as I'm not the only one experiencing this same issue.
Thanks for your time and effort!
