Hey Yelned, let me jump in here too! 

 

Is that happening on one of your team folders, or personal ones? 

 

Does this happen only when you use the desktop app, or the website too? Feel free to also let me know if you get any specific errors.

Only Teams folders on windows desktop app. Online is fine. Same occurs to another team member with admin rights on a Mac.

Personal dropbox folders are fine.

Edit. It has reverted back. I can now add a folder. However, the next comment (above) is still relevant.
