Read-only file, only on Dropbox for Android (!)
One file, docx., in a Dropbox directory - and only that file - appears as "only-read file" when I open it in Dropbox app for Android. Instead I can modify it without problems when I use the app on Windows 10 PC. I have copied the file from Dropbox to my PC, deleted it on Dropbox and uploaded it again: nothing changed. I reinstalled Dropbox on my Android tablet, no way. Others similar files in the game directory of Dropbox work perfectly. Can you help me, please? Thanks.
- Could you try copying and pasting the text in this file in another Word doc and see if the same issue is experienced there?

Hello Ben

How can this be considered an "Acceptable" solution? All formatting is removed when converting to text! Of I have to do this with what document I access on my Tablet, it makes Word UNUSEABLE!! This problem has been around since 2018!! And STILL no Fix?!? Absolutely unacceptable and ridiculous!
