error moving dropbox
Hello
I get this error when trying to move dropbox folder from C to 😧 "some files can't be moved, please select a new location or close some open files and try again".
Tried this advice, didn't ...

I am also having this issue and have tried these suggestions. Unfortunately, the problem still remains and I am unable to move one shared folder into another shared folder. Prompt assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I'm having the same issues as well. Can't move a whole bunch of one-off offboarded user files into a Team folder. I suspect it can't deal with the changes to sharing. I really wish Dropbox would get it's act together and show some useful information when things don't work. Getting pretty tired of all the new features that no one wants, auto-updating client software that completely breaks the chain of testing and approval and no bug fixes.
