HI Walter .
Thanks for your answer!
I am aware of this limitation. But that is actually not the issue.
Let me try to explain with more details.
I have plenty of page-files in my dropbox that do appear properly as "page-files". Dropbox-app or site cannot open them? Yep. But I'am totally ok with that! My intention is to use these files on my desktop.
The point is: beside these "normal" page-file, I have lots of the page-files in my dropbox that appear as "page-folder" - these folders have jpg-files inside. And I know they were all page-files that, at some point, were transformed in page-folders. Departing from this situation, how can I recover the page-files?
Please, look at the difference below.

How do these files appear in your local Dropbox folder?
