Since the last Dropbox update (223.4.4909), Dropbox is very slow and takes up most of my CPU.

Hi Nancy,

Thanks for the response.

That's correct yes, the issues only appear within dropbox folders. When I'm outside of them, there's no issue. 

I've been through the help centre article and the only stand out thing was the amount of files, I have a lot, I've been a business user for many years now so have many files. I've set a large amount of the files to online only but that's sadly not made an impact.

I'll have to try out the latest stable version as a next step.

The status column is only visible in windows 'details' view where each file is listed without thumbnails and shows the date, size etc in their own columns. In this view the status icon (that usually appears over your thumbnail in other views) appears in its own column called 'status'.

Thanks.

Mike.
