Error that something went wrong when opening my files on the Dropbox website
I really don't know what category to select for this.
I am on a free account. I logged in and I can't open any folder or file. The storage is only about 50% full. I get this message:
Something went wrong. Don`t worry, your files are still safe and the Dropbox team has been notified. Check out our Status Page to see if there is a known incident, our Help center and forums for help, or head back to home.
No issues are reported on the Status Page and I tried some suggestions from the forums. I use Edge, with windows updates on. I tried clearing the cookies or incognito mode, nothing changed.

Welcome to our forum, nseruame! Hope you’re well.
Are you still seeing the same thing on your end? If yes, I’d like you to try a totally different browser as well, and let me know what you see there.
Feel free to send me a screenshot of the error, in case the issue persists.
Keep me posted for any updates.
