Sorry to hear this persists GBShields.
Can you maybe try downloading and installing our desktop app from the following link directly and let me know how it goes?
Thanks!

Dropbox Community ModeratorThanks for providing this piece of information GBShields , that's indeed the S mode for Windows 10 as our own desktop app's version is currently 73.4.118 - the v. 20.4.0.0 is referring to the Microsoft store's application. Read on for more information:
As the following article outlines, the Dropbox app for 10 in S mode does not actively store files and folders on your device and it allows you to access your files and folders that are stored on your Dropbox account when youâre connected to the internet, or if you chose to save them to your device for offline access. It works similarly to the other Dropbox mobile apps (even when youâre using it on a computer).
Since we verified that your device is running Windows 10 in S mode and youâd like it to actively store your files and folders on your device, you should use Windows 10 instead by switching off S mode on your device and then downloading the Dropbox app for Windows 10.
Keep me posted!
I made it to a page in the MS Store, and it says that I cannot switch out of S Mode because I am not currently using S-Mode.
