My dropbox say I have low disk space and won't sync but I have still 25Gb free space

I've just redid my whole system and reinstall dropbox as well. I've also updated to win 10. Any idea anybody?

    Probably, or, if you dont need everything in Dropbox on your machine then use Selective Sync to remove things from Dropbox from your local machine - www.dropbox.com/help/175

Super helpful, thanks. So my assumption always was that Dropbox replaces the need to sync to external hard drives as they get lost between home offices and work office and/or other staff using them (I have a super small biz), but this is in fact not correct? I should still back up my PC files on an external drive, and only use select sync for Dropbox? Thx.
