    Thanks for checking, roiho!

     

    From what you mention, it sounds like your desktop app is currently fully synced.

     

    Can you try to upload a few files to your Dropbox account, as a test, and let me know if the same issue still persists?

     

    If it does, I’d like you to create a screen recording of what you see on your end, so that we can investigate this further.

    Hi Nancy ,

    There is nothing really to show. The issue is that even though it says everything is synced, the files I create or edit are not uploaded to the Dropbox server. Only when I click "pause" and then "sync" it gets uploaded.

    Hi roiho, sorry to jump in here!

     

    Have you tried uninstalling, then re-installing the app to see if this does the trick for you?

    Hi Megan ,

    Thanks for your suggestion. I just tried that, but still, the problem persists.
