There's no option to share a link via the Dropbox desktop app on Windows 11

Hey KendalHarr! From your post, it sounds indeed like the Dropbox app isn’t running on your computer, so it’s expected to not see any Dropbox options in the right-click context menu.

As the next step, can you go to your Start menu > Programs and restart the Dropbox app from there? 

Let me know if that fixes the issue.

Same problem here.  No dropbox menu selections when I right click in the dropbox foldrs in explorer as there was previously. I think this happened with the Windows 11 update or one of the fixes.  Only app icon I have on the lower right is dropbox passwords.  The previous dropbox control icon is gone.  

Will redownloading the dropbox app fix this problem?  Would prefer to hear from someone who knows for sure because they have done it.  If so, can you please give detailed instructions on how to uninstall (is this needed) and reinstall dropbox.  I have a ton of folders and files on dropbox and this is going to be a chore.

Thanks,Kendal

Well, in another adventure of wtf; for some reason it works again.🤷‍♂️

I don't see that, but I went to settings. App Version 218.4.4348.0

Are you seeing the small Dropbox icon in your system tray at the moment (close to your clock settings)? If you are, and you hover over it, the app version should be visible (if your app is updated, you should be seeing this app version).

Unsure of what app version on my laptop. How do I check to update? Or maybe it was a recent update?

Some files definitely are out of sync

Hey Weglarz! From what appears on your screenshot, you’re missing all Dropbox options from your context menu. 

Can you clarify the current syncing status and app version of your Dropbox app?

Seems like not all files are syncing with some having a green check mark in circle and others with recycling type rounded arrows.

Hi Weglarz, is this option missing for files in the Dropbox folder?

Could you attach a screenshot showing the options you get in the context menu?
