Can't drag Files to Dropbox Folder in Catalina
Hello,
In catalina I am no longer able to drag files in finder into the dropbox folder. The selected object just sort of springs back into place and will not enter the Dropbox folder.

IFS=$'\n'; for path in `python -c $'import os\nimport json\nfor key, value in json.loads(open(os.path.expanduser("~/.dropbox/info.json")).read()).items():\n print value["path"].encode("utf-8")'`; do echo "$path"; xattr -d com.apple.quarantine "$path"; done
in Terminal, that worked for me, thanks!!

Hi! I understand that your solution works. Can you walk us through your instructions, please? I open Terminal, then what? Do I type "done" too? Thanks in advance for your help. I'm a novice at all this!
