Will online-only files on a Windows computer be the same as on Dropbox for Mac?
hello fellow dropbox users, I have a question, as I've installed the new dropbox update on my mac which is running ventura and now that dropbox is deeply integrated, I have one more question, one of my other computers runs windows so does that make online only files appear that way on windows too?
Hey meemeemux, sorry to jump in here, but I just wanted to mention that the sync status of one of your devices, let's say your Mac for example, won't be affecting the sync status of your other device (i.e. the Windows one).
I hope this clears things up!

yes, that's correct, I'd right click on my mac on any file and make it online, will that change then appear on my windows computer as I am confused after installing the update the other day
