Dropbox Update - Issues with file link

Dropbox was automatically updated on my computer and after the update, my co workers has a shortcut on the drive to allow old file links to remain the same when opening them. My computer does not have this and i cannot find a way to add it.

  • Hi Jay, 

     

    It was the symlink, i was able to recreate it and it seems to be working now.

    Hi BrandonLee, thanks for messaging the Community.

     

    Which OS are you currently using, and is it different to your colleagues?

     

    Is it possible that you're referring to a symlink to the Dropbox folder?

     

    Any other info or screenshots would be helpful!
