Theresamy issue isn't fixed though.
I was the one starting this thread.
Any news on that end?- Nancy

Hi again, andreasgrill! Thanks for all the extra info you’ve provided so far.
From what I can see on the screenshot you’ve attached from your Dropbox folder properties, it currently contains more than one million files, which could be related to the issue you’re currently having (in general, syncing more than 300k files locally on your desktop app may cause performance issues).
Can you clarify if most of these files have been set as online-only, by any chance?
hello Nancy
yes, correct the majority of these files are online-only.- Nancy
Perfect, thanks for clarifying that. Can you send me a screenshot of the files that are currently stuck syncing in your Dropbox folder? I’d like to have a visual and see what else we can try after that.
