Dropbox options aren't available when right-clicking on Mac
I am running Sonoma 14.6.
The Dropbox options that used to be available with a "right click" are no longer there.
I have rebooted and done a "hard" restart. Still no Dropbox options. The Dropbox icon is up on by Toolbar.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, Will F.
Which version of the Dropbox app are you using and what is the sync status?
You can hover over your Dropbox icon to see this info.
Are you also missing your sync icons on the files? And is the app syncing as normal?
Let me know and we'll go from there.
Version is 219.3.4354 and it states it is "Up to date". Synching appears okay. I do not see any icons to the right of files in Finder.
