I gave up trying to get the 2023 Quicken files to work, so I reentered all my 2023 Quicken transactions. Thank you all for your help in this matter.

Hey cjbarnhart, can you send me a screenshot of the options you see, when you right click on a folder, or file within your Dropbox folder?
Feel free to also send me one of the app's syncing status, and version.
It'll help me get a visual. Thanks!

This folder is the only folder that I can find with an option to toggle between "Make on-line Only" and "Make Available Online." I have been doing some trial and error and found that I can open Dropbox files for year 2022 but none for year 2023. I have tried opening the 2023 files while offline and online only and they still don't work.
