Repeated Dropbox messages on Win10 about moving online-only files to the Dropbox folder

Repeated messages are appearing today; first time ever:   Does anyone know how to stop these? Edward

    Hi Nancy,

    I was not opening any files so that's why it was strange.

    Also nothing untoward re synching as far as I could gather from the app.


    What I did was to quit and restart the Dropbox app on my pc. This seems to have worked.

    If these messages re-appear, I'll come back to this thread.
