Thanks a bunch!

Dropbox Community ModeratorHi Sheila M.8, this feature was never removed from the app. When you click the Dropbox icon near the clock, you can click on the avatar on the top right, then Preferences, and Sync to amend the selective sync settings.
Hi Jay,
Thanks for attempting to answer this. However, the directions you provided only work in the non-defunct desktop app. The only thing that happens when you click on the icon on the taskbar now is that the file explorer/finder window opens to the dropbox folder. That's it. No window opens, no avatar is there, and no ability to adjust preferences exists. If you look at this very long thread, you will see this issue is what we are all complaining about. Dropbox somewhat stealthily removed the app and its functionality.

Hi Sheila M.8, sorry to jump in here!
Can you send us a screenshot of the icon you click on your end when trying to access the app's settings, please? That'll help us get a clear visual of what is happening on your end.
Is this the one you're clicking on your end?
