Dea All, since a few days I noticed that my dropbox app installed on Windows 11 behaves in a different way than usual. First, I no longer have the solid green dots in my off-line files but white-green dots, moreover the interfaces also changed (I had a menu to select off-line and online sync but now the comments are in the main preference menu). Any explanation? I am sure my explanation wasn't very clear, sorry.

    Hey Frennys, thanks for posting to our Community.
