Nautilus context menu

Hello,

 

Apparently I have lost the Dropbox context menu in Nautilus when I'm browsing my Dropbox folder. The context menu where I can get the file URL and Manage the files. I still have the Dropbox context menu to send file to my Dropbox folder from any other folders though.

 

Nautilus Version 3.36.3-stable

Dropbox daemon version : 114.4.426

Dropbox command-line interface version : 2020.03.04

 

Best regards

    Hello Jay,

     

    I don't know if it's due to a recent system update but it seems that I have both context menu now. Maybe it's a bug with Gnome-Shell and not necesserally a bug with Dropbox it's self.

     

    Thanks for the reply so quickly, very appreciated. If the problem came back I will keep you posted.

     

    Best regards

    Hi StarBootics, thanks for posting today!

    Could you clarify exactly which context menu you're missing on your device?

    Have you tried reinstalling the Dropbox desktop application to see if this helps?

    Any other info or screenshots would be helpful!
