Offline sync option missing.
Where is the option to have Dropbox make all files available offline? It used to be in the Sync tap of preferences...

Welcome aboard our forum, nmononono!
In general, you can find the selective sync preferences when visiting the Sync tab of your app’s preferences.
Online-only/Available offline options should be visible when right clicking on your files/folders within the local Dropbox folder.
Can you please try this, and let me know if you can see these options now?
Keep me posted.

I can right click and set files and folders to "make available offline". However, I want to have my entire Dropbox sync locally to my computer. I've done this in the past with an option under the sync tab but now that option is missing.

If you want to sync locally the entire Dropbox folder, you can right click on it directly and select the option to make everything available offline.
This way, the app should download everything that’s located within your Dropbox folder.
