Dropbox not syncing - as of about 2 days ago
My dropbox folder on my Windows 10 (v20H2) PC has stopped syncing. I think perhaps it was because I ran an automated upgrade to the Dropbox software yesterday and perhaps something went wrong - b...
It seems to be back working again. But only after I disconnected my IFTTT applet and then connected that same IFTTT applet again.
Correction -- I can delete files off my local Dropbox drive, but they don't get deleted off Dropbox cloud. Sync is not working.

Dropbox Community ModeratorThanks for the updates on this petera2.
Can you please try an advanced reinstall and let us know if this persists?
In case it does, please send us a screenshot of the app's status as shown in your system tray so that we can have a look too.

First a note on status: Over night, I Dropbox auto updated to v115.4.601 and the sync process had progressed from being stalled at 16 files to 4 all of which I could find. So, while that is progress, new files do not sync.
I have completed the suggested Advanced Reinstall process. There are 30,801 files to sync and that process is progressing slowly. After 1 hr 20 min the count is down to 28,722 files. At this rate will take about 15 hours to complete. I'll report back later on progress.
Sync is done. It did not take 15 hours, only 3. It looks like the Advanced Reinstall solved the problem. When I add a file to the Dropbox, it immediately syncs.
