    Thanks, When I went back to try and quit OneDrive, the problem was no longer visible. I guess that Dropbox and OneDrive were running at the same time. No longer an issue.

Hi daisy5, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

In general, this could be related to another cloud provider running at the same time, namely OneDrive. 

Could you try quitting OneDrive entirely and see what icon you see on those files now?

This will help me to assist further!
