Hey Chris B.82, let me jump in here too!

Let me ask: are these temp files created in a specific folder? 

I'm asking because if that's the case, then you could then use these steps, and choose for the folder to be ignored by Dropbox? Would that work for you?

    Yes, It is a specific directory.  I would love to be able to access it from other locations but I like your suggestion and it is a small price to pay. 

    I really don't know what a better suggestion could be other than allowing some directories to be synched only once a day, "at midnight"?

    For some reason when I  right click and get the dropbox context menu  I don't see the synch option, but I am sure the powershell will work
