Dropbox Community ModeratorThanks for the screenshot, Lorraine, I appreciate it!
The thing is that this is a window generated by your operating system, which allows you to browse and select files to upload to other sites or apps.
What do you see, if you click on 'Google Drive'? Does the 'Google Photos' option appear there, perhaps?
If not, since you don't have an issue finding Dropbox, but it's Google Photos that's missing from those options, I think it'd be best to look into this with Google, who have also created your operating system.
They should be able to help you figure out why that option is missing and how to add it back.
