Dropbox app is stuck syncing 10 files on my macOS.

Since more than a week dropbox is trying to sync 10 files (only 17kb total). It never syncs those files. 

However, it syncs any new files or other files.

How to fix this?

    You should have less than 300k file

    I’m a programmer and I store my project files in Dropbox. Most of these files come from my coding projects.

    I can’t just move the folders elsewhere because the projects rely on absolute paths.

    Btw, my computer is quite powerful so there shouldn't be a perform issue.

    Any other ideas?
