    Hey JoshInC, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

    Have you restarted your computer at all, to see if that helps?

    Does indexing appear to be stuck on a specific number of files or does it keep moving, just slowly?

    Also, can you make sure you've given Dropbox full disk access?

    Keep me posted.
