Thank you very much for your help. It seems odd that there are that many out of sync files when I don’t usually delete folders. Could it have been caused by me moving a Dropbox from internal storage to an external drive ??

    Hey mrrssy!

    When you mention "out of sync files" are you talking about the conflicts? Is your app up-to-date on all of your devices? 

    Feel free to also have a look at the relevant Help Center article here.
