How can I sync files on Dropbox? The app doesn't do it automatically.
I looked up how to sync here on DropBox, but it looks like they still have the same instructions as it worked years ago. I have a brand new laptop and when I right-click on any of my Windows folders,...
Same issue here. I installed the newest version and there still is NO way to click "online only" for folders and files. It used to give the option inside File Explorer with a right click. Now it won't even work on the website version. All files are in the /Dropbox directory.

Dropbox Community ModeratorHey Beelzebon!
Would you mind clarifying what you're trying to accomplish?
Making a file "online-only" would only be possible from within your local Dropbox folder, not our website.
If you're right-clicking on a file and don't see this option, can you let us know more about your setup? Like, what's your Windows version and Dropbox app version?
You can see the latter if you hover over the Dropbox icon in your system tray.
A screenshot of the right-click options you see, would also be really helpful!
