I was unaware that everything in Dropbox is now "online only" after a default install where you select to sync everything and set default new files to be available locally. You still have to manually find the Dropbox folder - right click it and select "Make available offline". This was not the default behavior last time I reinstalled - this this is a terrible UX decision - it should be something you select during install or from within the Dropbox app itself, having to right click the root folder and open the secondary context menu on Windows 11 to get your actualy Dropbox library locally is bad design - but I degress.
