It's now indexing a whole lot more files... nothing I changed, all due to this Windows update and correspondent dropbox adjustment.
It's going to take forever. I need to prioritize what to sync first, I'm having a lot of difficulty working today!! 😥

Dropbox Community ModeratorHey any_ , I hope it's okay to jump in here as well.
If I understand correctly, you've had an update on your Windows computer and your Dropbox app is updating to the new version of Dropbox for Windows as well, right?
If that's the case, then it would make sense why "Sync now" isn't available in the context menu.
Since I understand that you would like to prioritize specific content, although it's not what you've been looking for, it might be worth using our selective sync feature for the time being, through which you can choose which folders you would like to sync on your device.
Feel free to reach back out if you have any follow-up questions, and thank you for the time you've dedicated on this.
